Here's the beginning of my Directorate, from way back in V1 days:

Very nice! I have the Directorate models from the Overseer box set. Really need to get to work on those, but they may have to wait until after Adepticon--RSN takes priority as that's the fleet I'm taking.

Sharp looking scheme! Is the orange metallic? It almost looks like it in the pics. With that color combo, these guys remind me of Master Chief's Mjolnr armor :).

Those colors work really well together.

It's more red than orange in person, but no, it's not metallic.

Very, very nice work. I've not seen Directorate in those colors before--very sharp.

That looks great! The aggressive profile of the WR ships is excellent. This one reminds me a bit of an Ork Kill Kroozer!

The purple you are using as a spot color works really well; it gives the model a very distinctive look.
