I really like the black and green combination as well.  I know it doesn't jump out as much as yellow/purple or blue/white does but they still look really nice.  As the others have said, maybe a slightly lighter green highlight or a grey over the black might lift them slightly but I like them as they are.

I agree with mmcv, lighting the green shade might help.   Green clothing against green basing doesn't give enough contrast imho. Your painting on figures is so good it is a shame to bury it in the background.

I think I've now got the green army colour scheme sorted out!

What do you guys think?

I wonder how Orange and Green translate to weed usage?

I think it's probably Ian's 'complement' of "seen worse" written phonetically in a fake Nordic(?) accent?

Possibly not really that helpful when communicating with a non-first language English speaker?!

What ?.....Weed usage ?.......Never touched the stuff.

I just use the properly, legitimately prescribed opiate painkillers, from the Doctor  X_X

Wish I could get away from the b*ggers.
