TrashMan Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I'm trying to come up with a color scheme for my chapters terminators. Now my chapters colors are already decided, but termies can get different pain jobs...because deathwing. My chapter has regular terminators and a special 12-man group. This is some of the possible variants (the last two have different color patterns on the legs...those were experimental, the colors in the end should match) http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/2193/2x9s.jpg http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110810134661/warhammer40kfanon/images/e/e3/Terminators2.jpg This is how a regular marine looks: http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100817065016/warhammer40kfanon/images/0/0b/KoV4.jpg And this is how a cpatain looks: http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100817074623/warhammer40kfanon/images/1/14/Kovcommander.jpg There are a few more examples in the IA in my siggy. So... I want oppinions. I'm looking for 2-3 best patterns. I was experimenting with a fiery pattern progression (yellow -> orange -> reddish) on different body parts Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281728-help-me-with-an-aesthetic-decision/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Handed Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I quite like the scheme on the third marine on the top row, it just seems to strike me as the fire burning at the centre of your men. Please forgive my artistic whimsy on this. But I have to say, that captain scheme is ace.

TrashMan Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 Thanks. I might end up editing the images with small tweaks.. maybe a slightly different helmet and bits and doo-dads on the Termie armor. Already did some personalization for the captains: http://images.wikia.com/warhammer40kfanon/images/9/93/3helmets.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281728-help-me-with-an-aesthetic-decision/#findComment-3491872 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I like the second TDA scheme (in 1st pic), assuming you're planning on graduating from yellow to red, reminds me of the Celebrants scheme.

TrashMan Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 I need more oppinions. Still can't decide! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281728-help-me-with-an-aesthetic-decision/#findComment-3495627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I saw this post earlier - and the brightness and many variations really fused my eyes to death! No offence, I guess yellows, oranges and black mixed in many similar but random ways is quite confusing. Perhaps you should take the above pictures, and make a small pictorial for each army group. So a line up of your commander, 5x termies, and 2x 10 tacticals (like they do in the old WD's when showing your organisation). From this grouping, each of the different colours, you can see on mass how the schemes better fit - it may also be easier on the eye to distinguish a liking when separated from the other similar fusions of colours.

Malthe Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Leftmost in the middle row. Black feet are definitely the way to go and the helmet colour matching the captains' is kind of neat. Also it looks badass and on fire. As SCL said it looks a little like the Celebrants' scheme, which would be awsome with a little more black in it (to represent coal).The one in the lower right corner is also nice, though I'd change the yellow in that one to orange. My one complaint is that it is a little too much like the Blood Angels' Death Company.Seriously though, leftmost in the middle row. You know you want to.
