Thinking of colours for some marines
basic concept is to use Dark Angel iconography, as a good few of the models are from Dark Vengence and have it plastered all over, also provides a source of decals in white.
That in turn means a base colour that white will go over.
ended up with this chap
grey bits are gun metal silver, probably not brought all the way up to being highly polished but left a darker metal colour.
Deep pink is likely to be Magenta highlighted Sunset Red, possibly with a bit of red ink if needed
Lighter pink is Squid pink cut with white, highlighted a lighter shade still - this also used for weapons casings
cables etc are a dark grey, eyes are a deep blue, which will also be used as the base for things like plasma coils
Any other shoulder markings likely to be in white to match the chapter marking
Whole lot likely to get weathering down to a pretty matt finish.
Thoughts?
