Meet the Lamenters

Inspired by Aventine's army, my Space Marine chapter is the unfortunate Lamenters.

Here's the first Tactical Squad I've (almost) completed and based. Variation in the paint shades is due to experiments with different washes and highlights. My current method is the one used in the models in the front row, 2nd and 3rd from the left. The sergeant is an earlier "cleaner" style.
