Adeptus Mechanicus Paint Recipe

This page captures the paint recipe for my Adeptus Mechanicus Kill Team. My kill team originates on Mars and will use the GW Mars Skitarii paint scheme for the most part.  I use many paints from Vallejo, P3, and The Army Painter, however, so it helps me to catalog the final recipe here so I will be able ot add models over time without forgetting the exact choices.
