The client’s request was to use Cyan Blue and Silver in a manner that shifts color using color shifting paint. The inspiration for the scheme came from the fact that these Tyranids descend from Hive Fleet Tiamat.
The basing is exactly as you see it. We used reflective film of the same kind used on mirrors. Didn’t quite end up the same, but you can see the reflected feet if you look closely!
These were painted to Showcase quality.

Paintedfigs is a miniature painting service. You can send us your figurines to paint, and we also have painted miniatures for sale. We paint mainly Games Workshop (Warhammer 40k, Warhammer Fantasy, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, Space Hulk, Bloodbowl, and so on), Star Wars, Warmachine and Hordes, and pretty much every Kickstarter and board game under the sun.
And we do so at the lowest rates on Earth (we’ve checked).
