Vanguard color test

Splashed the first few paints on one of the vanguards last night, trying to figure out how to actually paint it. Nothing is nowhere near done, but it gives a general idea of the direction it will take. I'm having a little trouble figuring our where to incorporate the red (greatcoat will be black), initially the plan was one or both shoulderpads - I am however not sure that's quite enough. Instead I have been considering the round part/top of the helmet, which I initially figured would be a steely metal. I kind of like the idea, as I think it will quite interesting and very different from the "standard" two metal setup.
