Been putting some of the commission dudes through their paces at my LGS. How good are you?
What colour paints were used on what you can see of this Chimera?
Hint, it is not a green Chimera

Wow those look like 2 different chimeras just from the photo/lighting qualities

I'll have a go once I've had a few hours sleep
Although I agree a better picture would be nice

The only difference between the two pictures is the lighting, zoom, and backing. On, and pose if you want to be picky about it. If people are still having problems, I'll try for a third pic in a few days or so.
Its surprising how much that lighting gives away that you normally cant see...

For the "paint color guessing" can you tell us if only 1 brand of paint was used and what brand it was? I almost think I'm seeing brass there but can't be specific about the name of it without a brand.
I'm thinking it'd probably turn out more like Daleks playing Quiddich. "It is the Potter!! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! " (someone I know on twitter)

The pictures are horrible. I can't see jack squat in them. Originally Posted by Renegade

Take a better picture, and then once people can TELL what color they even are, they can guess at what color they may be.
Once picture looks green, the other one looks silver. I assume these are the same tank?40k Dark Eldar HORDES - Legion of Everblight / INFINITY - Yu Jing, HaqqIslam

addamsfamily36, you got the Boltgun metal... but none of the others are right (other than being CITADEL paints) As with the hint I gave before, it is not green (ok it looks it) but there is NO green paint in use on the parts you can see.
Yes Buffo, same tank. I've had commission painters that have held it swear to me that it is a green.
