So, I'm going to be starting my first foray into mini paints soon. I've found some good starter tutorials so I'm good on that point.
One thing I WOULD like to do is have different color schemes for each deployment group for ease of gameplay. Mercenaries aren't an issue as they they don't have color schemes. Some imperial units like the officers also aren't an issue (black, tan, green)
Troopers, on the other hand, obviously are all wearing the same armor. I'm a little wary of going too crazy with the lore-based color schemes out of concern for them being in future expansions (like the mud troopers)
So, I'm wondering if there's any suggestions?
Off hand kinda thinking using different environments for textures (space station, sand blasted, muddy, etc), but what are your thoughts?
