I also used his receipe and followed it completely. As some variety can never be wrong, I went with the brownish scheme for those models. Somehow I don't want to have an all "glossy black" Alien army. :-)
Just like Agis I don't wanted to use the lipped bases Prodos supplies the models with and used 2mm thick laser-cut plywood bases found cheaply on eBay instead. Thinking of LV-426 or other colonies the bases got a rocky grey colour pattern which really makes the models stand out. Gloss varnish spray from Revell and an extra thick coat of Citadel's 'Ard Coat for the heads finished off the overall effect I was looking for.
10 done, 10 more to do. 👌

The brown colour looks pretty good on them, like it is somewhere between leather and bone.
I think it's almost the same colour as a facehugger.
Those look superb! Very creepy.
