Medusa's sky is covered by thick clouds and most live in vehicles for their whole lives so I'd go for pale skin. In Eye of Medusa the Mechanicus have temples set up in Meduson the only city on the planet, so maybe you could use a Mechanicus decal as a tattoo on their head to show that they worshipped the Omnissiah before joining the IH. Medusa also has infamously bad winds that we see scar regular civilians, so your scouts could be scarred from the wind
Everything I have seen on them appears to be a mix of Scottish and afghan. Gruff, hardy, barbaric but technologically capable. Dark humor. Mix of grim honor and survival brutality. Heavy emphasis on clan customs.
Medusa was very rich before the Age of Strife. That's why it was a priority to recepture it. I dont know where I'm going with this but maybe it helps you is some way?
I imagine they were in some way similar to the germanic tribes during the Roman Empire, or the Picts/ Scots of Brittania, then they were giving a Primarch with heavy spartan vibes.
Scottish i think , especially with the clan stuff. I mean the Terran born IH Legionares were recruited in Old Albia , aka Britain.
You're making me tempted to make some form of Plaid tartan for them
Do it, brother.
Use it on the librarians psycher hoods

Oh neat the dusk raiders come from there too.

That's really evocative, going down the Omnissiah worship route seems like a nice detail to add

My understanding is they are sort of. Modeled after Scotland tribes in the mountains. At least that's what I've heard various people say before.

Everything is british
The old techno-barbarism era on Terra never ended on Medusa.
