Redemptor Nemiel Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I have just started a Iron warriors army for Warhammer 40k and i'm a stuck on what colour to use for the lenses. I am thinking of going for red. Should I also use the same colour i use for the lenses as a spot colour, on things like plasma coils and the terminator trophy rack tassels/pouches. I will be using yellow and black on a few of the models, for chevrons, but only squad champions and vehicles/daemon engines, it will be very subtle. If any fellow Iron Warriors or anyone to be honest could help me i'd be very greatful.

incinerator950 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Red, yellow, and purple come to mind. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288846-iron-warriors-lensesspot-colour-help/#findComment-3638242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I use black for mine. Simple, yet cold and terrifying. EDIT: I also went strange, and used purples, pinks and whites for my plasma weapons.

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Thank you for the replies. Sorry for the late reply, I've been lost inethe warp. I never even considered black, it looks good and works really well. If you can get hold of White Dwarf issiue around 295 era that had a Iron Warrior - Will of Iron article by Christian Bryne, he painted his own Iron Warriors useing Black for the eye lence. You could also add gloss varnish give it that glass effect. For my own Iron Warriors I've went for blue. Use to be regal blue, ultramarine blue & ice blue for the highlight, but with the new paints I've started to move onto incubi darkness, sotek green & highlight with templae guard blue. Hope this helps IP Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288846-iron-warriors-lensesspot-colour-help/#findComment-3644933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
