Thanks! It was a complete shot in the dark, couldn't decide on a paint scheme and just shrugged my way through it haha.
I'll definitely try that with the khaki! Maybe I'll have better control than I did trying to use shades for depth. The orange to red highlights sounds good too, so I guess it has a little more to go before being done lol.
Painted up my Flyrant for the new edition! He's kinda flat though because I can't seem to figure out how to shade the white carapace without it looking horribly dirty. So I was thinking of giving him a glossy varnish to make him look shiny like some real life insects to compensate.
This mini looks awesome and the copper rim contrasts so well with the colors!
