Experiments with Terradon Turquoise Contrast (SoH)

[AgramarTheLunarWolf]

Hi!

 

A friend of mine has made some experiments, with Terradon Turquoise (Contrast), to show me a good combination for Sons of Horus. He used, a first layer of (In four separate miniatures, left-to-right):

 

-Silver (Vallejo)

-Boltgun Metal (Vallejo)

-Wraithbone (Citadel)

-White (Macota)

 

And those are the results (More pics in my blog). 

 

I really like Terradon Turquoise over Vallejo's Boltgun metal, but i need more opinions/ideas/suggestions.

 

Thanks in advance!

I agree no.2 looks good with Boltgun metal.

I'm not sure it's the right shade for "canonical" SoH on its own- maybe a more sea greenish contrast paint? Looks a bit teal/blue.

Me either, honestly. But I have seen people that painted SoH a little bit different from the canon sources...

Looks pretty decent. I'd leave off all the "buy a butt load of GW paint" and get the basics, but working with what you already have, number two looks fine to me.

I like number 2 quite a lot.
