Test Scorpion

Fun to get some paint on my first model in 10 months. It always amazes me how quickly hobby skills degrade! Also a bit of a shock to go from big chonky primaris marines to far more reasonably scaled and lithe Eldar :-)

Overall he came out well but the overall look is a bit more lime green than the saturated I was going for, and a bit more patchy than I expected.  Think I will swap the gems to red for contrast and need some more yellow on the accents.

Basing wise - think I will go jungle style for the stealth theme
