For the Verdant Eye faction I choose IAF018 Legionary 3rd Tesseran - Maia Mpi - Pose 2 from Alternative Armies. I based the models on washers, and hid the integral bases with plaster.

I airbrushed them Molotow Black, then applied a Daler-Rowney White Ink zenithal. This was followed by a PRO Acryl Bold Titanium White drybrush.
Then I used:
Overall underpainting
Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet thinned down over the whole model
Uniform
blue and violet mix, with the light blue added for later highlights
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Cerulean Blue Hue
  • Golden SoFlat Light Pthalo Blue
Skin
starting from violet and orange, adding more orange, then yellow
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Cadmium Orange
  • Golden SoFlat Pale Yellow
Eyes
to keep the colors harmonized, again starting from violet
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Yellow Green
Cloak
trying to mix a grey from violet
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Yellow Green
  • Golden SoFlat Pale Yellow
Weapon
again, starting from violet
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Yellow Green
  • Golden SoFlat Pale Yellow
  • PRO Acryl Bold Titanium White
Boot/Belt
of course, violet based
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Cadmium Orange
  • Golden SoFlat Yellow Green
  • Golden SoFlat Pale Yellow
Weapon
again, starting from violet
  • Golden SoFlat Dioxazine Violet
  • Golden SoFlat Light Magenta
Where I felt a little more punch was needed, I added a tiny bit of PRO Acryl Bold Titanium White to the last highlight step.
