Bunter Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Hope this is the right place to post this... I am starting on a force of Dark Angels and have decided, mainly because it is a lot faster and more likely I will get a decent amount of them done quickly, to use the colours of the Angels of Vengeance. Looking at the figure however I think it is missing something, it needs either another colour to be added to the scheme somehow or maybe a different basing option (I was thinking of using the necron green crysal bases) to add some more contrast to the model. Does anyone have any suggestions? ideally something reasonably simple as I have very little spare time and really want to get a cohesive force painted as quickly as possible! http://cdn.imghack.se/images/acc7f887454391790016f5d2ee1f8441.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucien Eilam Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I think Angels of Vengeance use the standard Dark Angels company markings, right? How about a red/bone quartered knee pad? One of the Studio Deathwing Sergeants has that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Well, right now, none of the details on the legs are done, you could use your gold/brass/bronze color to do those, or put a little bit of bone on the icons, something like that. The AoV definitely still use the bone color on their chest aquilas and icons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Belial Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I would say get some bone in there. If any thing it will give a light contrast to all the darker colors or brighten up the gold with some edge highlighting in the brighter gold.

Bunter Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Yeah, bone would be a good addition, I could make the left shoulderpad mark bone and have x knee design bone/red. Cheers amigos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhg033 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 +1 for bone. it adds a nice contrast to the stark black of the armour and red details. steer clear of green as with the red and brass/copper colours they will end up looking christmasy. i'll be picking up my AoV again soon if I can get the motivation and not be distracted from them by other armies. seeing your DWK has focused me a bit more so thanks!
