Pak colours, now with pictures

[Banichi]

Does anyone remember what colours the pak warbird in series 5 was? I think dark gray and green, but it has been ages since I saw the episode. Just recieved a couple of pak ships and was thinking of using a dark gray/dark green colour scheme on them. Afraid I am not a fan of bright yellow.

Does it matter what colour it actually was? if you want to use those colours then go for it, thats my my EA are a shadow grey, and I have Narn that are Black and gunmetal. I may even have some Purple minbari before long

If I remember correctly we only see a Pakmara ship once, and it's a Sunhawk. It could have been loaned by the Drazi, so we cant be sure what their 'real' color is...

I kinda think very shabby and dirty looking grey might work, since they're apparently not big on keeping things clean. Or maybe drybrush to add some rust?

just need to hard coat mine now.

Just did a little test, and the dark gray/dark green combo looks like the way to go. I didn't want to use reds of any kind in case it made them look menacing. I have a hard time imagining pak'ma'ra being menacing, unless your a dead body, and then your probablely beyond being menaced.

I definitely wanna see. Yeah, come to think of it, green can give that mouldy disgusting look...
Being the filthy race they are, they're also menacing when you're wearing your best suit :wink:

So, would you date a pak'ma'ra? :wink:

Since they are scavengers, you could make the ships a patchwork of colors. For the Drazi ships, green, purple, and some form of silver or gray. Other ships could be patched of the races that they are from. Just a thought.

"We don't have enough white primer and we don't have enough red primer so..."
"Please tell me you didn't..."
"We mixed them."

One of my favorite movies.

Sorry for the delay. Had some camera issues. Looks "functional" yet not all that pretty. PakMaRaish The carrier is from AOG. I'll proxy it for some other sort of Pak ship.

Thats the effect I am aiming for, functional yet not that pretty. I like the colour of your ships, did you use ink over a white or gray base coat?

Here's the result of my test run. I havn't tidied it up (or should I say dirtied it up), or varnished it yet.

I'm not to sure how to go about making it look grubby. Part of me kind of likes how it looks now. Even pak ships must look clean at some stage, surely.

Oh, and heres my cat on his chair in the study. He came in to see what I was doing, and fell asleep.
