For this unit, I used a blue & yellow scheme. Some wearing blue with yellow shields, some wearing yellow with blue shields. Unit cohesion without everyone looking exactly the same. I think it actually worked quite well.
I really like the style of these older GW Dwarfs… Slightly more cartoon-y, and there was no variation at all in the box of 8 in terms of modelling, but the different shields and variation in colors helps with that. I also took the time to gloss the red vials. Health Potions, maybe? I dunno, but I wanted something more than yet another set of leather sacks on this unit. I think it looks pretty good with the gloss!
