Can't go wrong. Maybe a color that pops the Martian from its base?

Paint it so it makes you want to STEP ON IT!!!!!
Something nasty like an ugly cockroach you find in your kitchen when you turn the lights on!!!
STOMP STOMP STOMP!!!!!!!!!
I try to keep the doors shut down here in Florida, we have those big woods roaches that sneak in sometimes........

My mother does love me! Been working on the crew for my Ironclad. And also using them as the learning curve for how to paint infantry. Took the basic colour palette of a FB post (Thanks to Art Edgeson).

The question is, should I magnetize them on or just glue them.

I bought some new paints last weekend, I'll have to try them out on some models too.
Did you do a different color on the helmets?

Nope. It is the same as the uniforms. Vallego US Field Drab and I think GW Sepia wash

I suggest using the magnets so they can be removed. Standing outside atop a vehicle that may encounter a heat ray is the quick way to become crispy critters.

Yeah, I had considered that, but so as to exercise my imagination I thought I could make believe that they had gone inside.
So I have glued them. Pics to follow later tonight I hope.

Not a problem. It is your model. Much to be said for simplicity.
