Today I did a fair bit of work on the Maiden Guard. Most of the actual work was done by washes - Asurmen Blue on the silver, and Biel-Tan Green on the, well, greens.

The shields are Skarsnik Green, and the cloaks are Warpstone Glow, while the edging around the scale mail and the lining of tunics, skirts, or other bits of cloth are Warboss Green. The next step is to do a couple of layers of highlights, which I'll probably use a yellow to do in order to make the green warmer against the colder whites of the rest of the cloth and the spears and bows. The leatherwork is all going to be a mix of browns, and then after that it'll be gold, rubies, red ribbons, and a variety of details.
I still don't know how to paint the skin or hair. Part of me is considering something like this image by Kiikiibee, which is a sort of coppery skin and red-brown hair; but I'm also thinking about maybe doing some darker skin tones and darker hair too - that might go nicely with the greens and whites. Or maybe a general mix.
