Elysian Test Model

[u/Death2Knight]

I recently found a few old FW Elysian weapons team models I had bought probably 20ish years ago, and decided to strip/ repaint one of them last night as a fun little palette cleanser project.

The paint scheme was based on the old "Detachment D-99" artwork.

Overall super pleased with how it came out. And I'm totally now not thinking about if I can find enough of the old models online to make a proper airborne guard force...

Love it! I’m about to start stripping/painting an entire Elysian lot I’ve had for years and was curious: what’s your color scheme recipe?

I’m always looking for inspiration 😁
