"Painting" 40K Plague Marines with Sharpie Pens

One of my more recent attempts at painting with Sharpie pens was some Plague Marines to help support the Nurgle Poxwalkers that I completed some time ago.  After priming them green, (with a zenithal overprime of a lighter green primer), I used Sharpies to paint them.  The metallic colors were used for all metal areas on the models and this effect was the most successful.  I dipped them using Royal Walnut Satin Mixwax Polyshade.  To match the Poxwalkers, I used normal acrylics to paint the the bases and added the same flocked foliage.

This approach saved some time over painting them with acrylics, but they turned out pretty messy.  But once again, because the models are Nurgle this method definitely works better than it would have on other types of models.  They match the Poxwalkers pretty well, and together they make a great Havoc Brothers (Disciples of Plague) skirmish force for Grimdark Future: Firefight.
