Ultrad81 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hi all So up until now my recipe for darker-than-usual Ultramarines has been: Base: Regal Blue Shading: Regal blue/Chaos Black 1st Highlight: Regal Blue+Ultramarine Blue 2nd Highlight: Ultramarine Blue 3rd Highlight: Ultramarine Blue+Space Wolves Grey Which has looked like this: My stock of these colours is finally running low, so I'm hoping for some advice as to where to go next. Obviously I'd like my future models to match as much as possible, so do I... 1. Order the 'corresponding' paints from another company (Valejo seem to be popular...) 2. Fall in with GW's new system, in which case any suggestions as to how to replicate the above combination would be very welcome! I'm thinking Kantor Blue/Altdorf Guard Blue/Fenrisian Grey as per the conversion chart but I've already got some Fenrisian Grey and i know its a bit 'off'. If the others are similarly different, then the overall effect will drift even further out. Any advice gratefully received!

003998 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Nice color scheme and great execution! From my experience, the Valejo Game Colors match their Citadel counterparts perfectly. I´ve specifically substiuted Regal Blue with Imperial Blue without any noticeable difference. Then again, you seem to be a better painter than me, so YMMV.
