Planetfall - Relthoza - Core Helix

 Back in June I determined the paint scheme I would use for my Planetfall Relthoza models, as well as how I would redo my Firestorm Armada models for the same faction (but I will keep the space cloak look I used before). They are 10mm in scale. Here is the first batch of the two Core helixes I have painted and nearly finished them last year but had a few details of them to complete.


Here is the company paint scheme on the back of the box they came in. I got fairly close.


New paint scheme is primed black with rough coat of Folk Art Green Forest. 
Dry brush of DecoArt Hunter Green and lighter dry brush of Necrotite Green it accentuate the edges. Then detail of Craftsmart Plum with a light brush of Craftsmart Pink Blossom on the Plum and a highlight of Color Factory Sky Blue on the engine exhaust/weapon/crew systems. I applied Army Painter gloss varnish over the purple organic looking areas of the model to make them look more alive and creepy. Base was painted DecoArt Burnt Umber and drybrushed DecoArt Yellow. Lichen was added to the bases to give that alien world look.

First up are the 32 Jabri drone swarms. There are six variations of bases that were made making a group of them look more imposing and random.


Twelve Namasic light walkers.


Two Varic specialist walkers.


Four Salamas medium walkers. 


Two Visith heavy walkers.


Two Yayiss sky pod for transporting the Jabri drone swarms to the battlefield.

It was fun painting them during free time and will continue painting them for the enjoyment of doing so. No idea if I will play the game but I can use them for Horizon Wars. Perhaps can use them in Battletech: Alpha Strike if they come up with a system for creation of home built units.
