Dindrenzi Core Helix - Painted

I finally got my Dindrenzi units all painted up. The first set of pictures will be of my core helix followed by the aerial helices. The color scheme I decided to go with is almost an inverse to the standard Dindrenzi scheme.

The models were all base coated in black to start. I followed this with a light coating of deck tan and then drybrushing with white grey. I added some hull red to provide some contrast and to make the models pop a little more on the table. Weapons and other points of glow were painted templar blue followed by sky blue and then a point source of white. The engines I painted a intermediate green then drybrushed necrotite green and then green yellow. I also added some dark german grey and gunmetal blue to add a little more variation to the model colors.

These were all very fun to paint. I really like all of the details Spartan was able to cram onto these models. The Kratos in particular is a favorite of mine for appearance and, so far in the one game I have played, a fairly solid unit. The infantry and drop pods also turned our fantastically. I really like the action poses Spartan modeled for the Nyx. Overall this helix may have taken the cake as my favorite from my Relthoza aesthetically though I am still in a toss up for which I enjoy playing more.

I will try to get both of my aerial helices up over the next week. My wife has taken all of the pictures, there are so many great ones to choose from, that it will take me a little bit to wade through them all and select the ones to upload. Shouldn't be too long though.
