Howdy! Been reading these boards for awhile and wanted to get some of your comments/suggestions on my color scheme.

This is a cross post (hope thats ok), but figured it could not hurt to get some more "exposure"

(Please ignore the teeth and my poor painting skills)

Notes:
1) The green paint is iridescent, it has a nice glowing effect when the light hits it
2) I have the black body drybrushed gray.
3) A this point I am not happy about the red claws. Going to try a glossy black or more bone colored approach.
4) My inspiration is a shiny beetle look

Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

Just like black-lining, to give definition to the model. Love the carapace!
