As much as I liked the second entry the first time around, I have to admit, the first entry this time is WOW!! That large creature is so cool looking and has garnered my attention!! Where did you get that figure...it is so cool!!
-
That Predator Power Armour is fantastic! My personal taste would dictate a slightly more yellowish tint to the skin of the aliens, but nicely done, anyway.

As the other hunter aliens, it is from Copplestone future War range:

Hauptgefreiter;
Thanks for the heads-up. That one got past me. I usually know what Mark does...missed that one!!

you're very welcome! I'm glad I was able to help! That's why we're here, aren't we? ;)

I don't know how you painted all the various striations on the big guy, Overlord. When faced with similar detail, I am usually forced to attempt drybrushing, which never looks good. The various instances of spotted camoflage look great as well.

I painted the first pack of 'Hunter Aliens' a couple(?) of years ago but never got around to these ::)
The originals are a paler, more yellow colour. I just couldnt remember what colours I had used. >:(

It wasnt too difficult as the detail is well defined on the casting. I initially painted the striations green followed by highlighting with the addition of yellow. The spotted camouflage is just a series of 'blobs' starting larger in the centre, gradually getting smaller towards the edge. In general it was an attempt to re-create the paint scheme of the example on Mark Copplestones website:
