As Seb said, the tan coloured plates are looking excellent. I'm honestly really impressed!
You were mentioning something about blue claws somewhere above but I have to say I don't like that idea. IMO the blue will clash way too much with the red and tan. I personally would do the claws in the tan colour also but I'm thinking now that black wouldn't be such a bad colour to do them in.
If there's one bit of colour theory I always remember, it's that black goes with anything
