So I got around an hour to paint last night, and finished the bronze detail on my Grath minis!

Once I do their guns, they're ready to go!  The only extra detail I might try is some "bar codes" on their skulls - that's how the example picture is done, and it looks pretty cool.  Maybe I could use a fine-tip sharpie to get very thin lines...

I've been going back and forth about how to paint their guns.  Usually, I just go for the cheap and easy "paint the whole gun in gunmetal silver" approach, but these guns are so large that they deserve a bit more detail.

Since the Grath are pretty low-tech for a scifi race, I'm going to keep the barrel and stock metalic, but paint the body and magazine in some other color.  Maybe blood red, just for contrast?  Grath aren't too worried about hiding and camo, so they'd probably go for something like that.
