What colors for a Kraken Hive Fleet

[Evex]

Good morning Hive, assuming you live around my area. I recently decided that I would paint my Nids' as a splinter of Hive Fleet Kraken. I was wondering what paints you guys use to make the Kraken colors.

I use ushtabu bone, hot rod gloss red from testors and dull coat to get this.

I use:

Carapace - Mephiston Red, Reikland Flesh wash, Evil Sunz, Wild Rider.

Body - Skull White, Serephim sepia, Screaming Skull, White Scar.

The rest is made up from different guides on the internet and from GW....though the above is my base Kraken scheme.

For Gaunts I spray them with army painters Skeleton Bone, paint carapace and claws Mephiston Red, then I dip them in army painters Strong Tone. Looks brilliant on the battlefield.

For characters and larger models I use more colors and more time but the base recipe is still bone spray and mephiston red carapace.

Got any pics of the army or the process? I was thinking of picking up a can of skeleton bone and using strong tone dips for my own models and would love to see how your gaunts came out using that method.

I can't upload any pics until about a week or so but once I get home I'll be sure to document the process
