Description
Obviously it's been a long time since I tried my hand at coloring anything. The main issue has long been my continued war with my ancient variant of Photoshop, which I finally, reluctantly, gave up on. I think there's something about my farmboy nature that makes me very reluctant to discard something, no matter how fickle, if it kinda-sorta still works. After getting my hands on a new version, however (not brand new, but still much younger than my last edition) I must admit - all that time feels more than a little bit wasted. I still have all of my normal problems with coloring, of course (I just don't have much of an eye for it) but it's a major improvement not having to worry that the system will crash on me every time I highlight an area. I call that progress, and hopefully it'll motivate me to do some more color work...Lineart, of course, is right over here: fav.me/d6n10zp

Very nice--great use of pastels, and I especially like the contrast of the orange sky and the splashes of red.

I'm glad you feel it worked out - I always worry about my color choices.

Very nice illustration. Next time take care about your soldiers and don't let them walking around out of chimera.
Man, I like the way you do wrong size of equipment and stuff of Warhammer, no sarcasm. You could say for sure - that is your own way of seeing things.
And the coloring is just fine.

They learned pretty quickly that being outside was not ideal - but someone had to scout the route through the ruins.
I believe in the end they decided that the NPCs should do it.
Glad you like the results.

Heh - there was actually about a ten minute argument among the players concerning who was going to end up outside. In the end it was pretty much a wash, since the Chimera got hit by a krak missile and the sentries almost had a wall fall on them, but yes - in the Chimera seems to be the desired position.
I noticed the Sergeant never put himself on outside duty.

Nice to see them colored.
Perhaps you should attach a Commissar to the squad, giving the Sergeant some incentive.

I'm trying not to scare them with Commissariat attention just yet.
Now that they know the rules a bit more though, it's only a matter of time...
