Thanks to Tau Online for this.
To get the skin colour like I did, I firstly went over the skin with Regal Blue, then I dry brushed over it with Enchanted Blue and finally I used Lightning Blue.
Then for the body I painted the cloth with Blood Red and the stitches which hold the cloth together were painted tentacle pink. Then I painted the body armour with Blazing Orange.
Then I painted the gun with Boltgun Metal then I went over it with Chainmail. As for the quills on the kroot's head I painted them Blood Red although you can't clearly see it from the photo.
For the base I painted the edge of it Dark Angels Green then I put Modelling Flock on the base followed by random blobs of Static Grass.

| No offence but i don\'t think that kroot, even on a multicoloured world would end up like that, it just doesn\'t look right |

| Ive never thought of painting on the sprue, but i usualy take the bits off the sprue, paint them, then construct the model... |

| I like the paint-while-on-the-sprue technique, but the color scheme makes me gag... repeatedly... |

| I like how the Kroot is painted. I might use that idea for my Kroot, once I get them. I don't like the Tentacle Pink though. I guess nothing else would stand out as much. |
