Sometimes it pays to have packages you never open. Years ago I purchased a set of 15mm Old Crow grav vehicles (the reason being long forgotten). Upon cleaning my shed I found this buried treasure and promptly painted them up.
If anyone guessed, I have a special place in my heart for the 40K Steel Legion for the Imperial Guard. Without having any better ideas I decided to use that scheme for this force. The pattern was simple: Tamiya NATO Black, Vallejo Model Air Dark Sea Grey, Tamiya Green Gray followed by a highlight of Vallejo Game Color Dead Flesh (all airbrushed). When done I gave them a wash of Minwax Tudor. Stowage was picked out with various model air colors (by hand of course).
I always fully mechanize any infantry forces I field. Glaive APCs & Lancer.

Infantry need armor support. Gladius Grav tanks support the advance.

Heavy armor is always present, just in case. Sabre heavy grav tanks are just the thing.

Finally, some add hoc support units: MRLS support along with a pair of light mecha for urban fighting.

These boys will fit with will my GZG Outrim Coalition and UNSC infantry forces.
Advice: vehicle stowage is a great way to cover up mistakes made during model assembly or painting.
