I also bit the bullet and added the armour plates on too. Then picked out the various colours. The yellow areas had Instar Vintage-17 which is an equivalent of Macharious Solar Orange.
Then the yellow is IV-16, and Iyanden Dark Sun equivalent. It's amazing how beige it looks in the bottle but how yellow it goes on the model.
Everything has since had a sepia/AP Soft Tone wash to tone down the metallics and blend some of the transitions or add shadows. All thee weapons were done to, all 10 of them and the heads.
When I took the Warhound pics I hadn't done anything to the Porphyrions. So I decided to do all the planned yellow areas and this is after the shade washes.
I don't know how I'm going to reconcile the chevrons on the legs.
Especially as they wrap around the legs of the knight on the right.
But I love the choices I've made and will find a way to make them work.
What I've also discovered is previously the Warhounds were worth just 5 hobby points each! Despite them being on 80mm bases, where the 5pt category is up to 70mm. The spare 6 weapons are another 6 points and the Porphyrions are 5pts each. So, this will be worth 26 points when done, but I do feel a little robbed, but what can you do?
