zarnak21 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I have the IA artical for Black legion from WD and it shoes a greeny grey colour scheme. The HH art bok seem to show them as a very grey colour. What are your thoughts on this. Has any one a good example of how they should look. I'm thinking of 2-1 astronomican grey - ork hide shade. Need it for the marine in my WIP custodes dread. http://www.pa-sy.com/hhccg/images/serghartargorst.jpg http://www.danscottart.com/Images/Dreadnought2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Child-of-the-Emperor Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 To my knowledge it was a pale green, been trying to find a decent picture ;) Heres a good picture: Link Edit: Heres an avatar of a Sons of Horus Marine: Link - as you can see theres a pale green sheen on the armour. Maybe starting with White then highlighting with a green? and on page 37 of "False Gods" Loken describes his new armour as having a "Green sheen" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 As the Sons of Horus they had a pale green armour, it's been likened to a pale pea green and also a sea green. As the Luna Wolves their armour was white. I know that the Terminators of Abaddons company wore black armour both as the Sons of Horus and the Luna Wolves. I saw a guy on the Great Crusade forum (apologies forgot his name) and he used Adeptus Mechanicus grey and used a Thraka Green wash to get a good looking colour for the Sons of Horus. Hope that helps and I haven't just stated the obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Well I have done quite a few SoH over the years if you want something that looks like the cover of Horus Rising/Sabertooth art go with Adeptus Battlegrey/Goblin Green 60/40 http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f295/wilis516/Picture541.jpg If you want something closer to the IA article I am currently useing Vallejo's Pale Sea Grey http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f295/wilis516/Picture147-2.jpg http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f295/wilis516/Picture148-2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillin Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 As the others have said it's a pale grey with just a touch of a green shade. Odd color if you ask me...But I'm a fan of anything LW's, SoH, BL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
