Death Eagles, first colour-test

Stuff is going pretty slow. Lots of tough work on my job.
But I started out with some pretty sketchy paint jobs on my first three marines. Nothing too impressive. I've only put some effort into the purple and green so far. 

Sarge:
 
All three:

I'm pretty pleased so far. Most of the unpainted areas will probably go in bronze to add to the archaic feel.
Anything you dislike, or if you got some own cool paint ideas to try out, now is a good time to tell.

The green arm is the company colour as in some very old fluff. Symbol on right shoulder is the tactical icon with a gamma letter for the squad. White stripe on helmets indicate that the are ordinary troopers, might change this as it collides with the with stripe for veteran sergeant.

Also a small update on the Corporal:

Chapter icon combined with the old Squad leader symbol:
 
Thanks for watching, and all comments and critics are welcome here.
Keep on getting inspired and get creative folks!

Death Eagles # 5

Just a small update.
 
Old Serge got converted to fit in with the new blokes. He's a bit shorter, and is now being reduced into a Corporal (2 ed Squad Leader).
 
A kneeler reloading. Redid the helmet a bit.

Plasma gunner. Fantasy Orc Shoulder plate.
