Raptor Colour Schemes....What do you think?

[Pappa Midnight]

I've just finished some Ral Partha raptors.
I'm not sure about the colour scheme, what do you think?

Lovely. Don't change a thing.  :love:

Very, very cool, and very, very neat. If you are uncertain, why don´t you place them in front of some jungle terrain, and see how it works out?

[Prof.Witchheimer]

I think that is a very good color scheme and very nice painting too!

[Rhoderic]

What is there to be not sure about? These are awesome!

[cwchmc]

i think you should strip them down and repaint them a boring green color....that way I wouldn't feel so bad about my raptors.
Seriously...great color scheme and great paint job.

Nice!

But I don't like the bases, grey doesn't fit the jungle very well...

Stunning work PM! I say stick with them as they are (but I agree that the bases being gray just seems off).

[Lowtardog]

They are fantastic PM :love:

I like the grey bases. They look volcanic. Primeval.

Lovely.
I mean terrible, terribly bad, really, really bad.
I'm surprised you can bring yourself to even look at them.
Hey, I know, send them to me and I'll promise you'll never have to see them again.
No, don't thank me, what are friends for after all

I like it !!!!

Wonderful painting PM     :love:  Don't change a thing. I like the bases, nice and neutral that won't look out of place in the jungle or the streets of New York.

Thank you all for the kind comments!

I wasn't too sure about the colours. I was going to paint them a lot brighter like some modern lizards but settled for the earthier colours.

I painted the base black/grey because I remember reading somewhere that there wasn't any grass around when these fellas roamed the Earth. Rhoderic was spot on, I got the idea from Primeval. I thought the volcanic landscape looked cool!

Hey Pat "TheOldSchool", have you been peeking at my workbench? It's weird you said about the Streets of New York. I was looking at using my "Zombie Hunters" for another purpose.................Modern Dino hunting!!
It's all Fritzy's fault for introducing me to the Saurian Safari rules! ::
Thanks to him I've now got a shelf full of dinos, a 1:43 Hummer I'm turning into a hunter vehicle and 25+ base coated Compys staring at me from my work bench! :freak:
