Thanks. They look even nicer in person. All the red you see is unpainted plastic. All the shading is dip, of course. I was inspired by the thread about Space Hulk 3rd Edition called "How to Paint a Terminator in 15 minutes" and by Universal Head's pictures of his painted minis for this game.
What substance do you use for the dip? I'm thinking of giving my figures a quick paint job, which will inevitably require some dipping. I've been using Quickshade Strong Tone previously, and while it gets the job done it sometimes leaves a too shiny surface; plus, there are a few colours (blue in particular) it doesn't combine with very well.

I used Minwax Polyshades Antique Walnut satin followed by Armory Matte Spray Varnish. The Matte Spray is necessary to take away the shine.
