Skallagoose Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hey all; just thinking of starting a chaos marines/daemons list with Tzeentch being primary theme. Thousand sons being kinda a key part of it (Love the fluff and currently reading the novel). My question that brings me here is; I have noticed so many different colors for the thousand sons, ranging from teal to dark blue. What do you guys recommend as the primary color for a tzeentch/Thousand sons army? More importantly I'm talking about the actual GW named colors. What color i was kind of thinking is the dark indigo of a blue Morpho butterfly but don't know what color would represent that color.

Caustic63 Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I use almost exclusively Caledor blue for my Tzeentch Army. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302481-tzeentchthousand-sons-colors/#findComment-3929701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 It depends on whether you want lighter or darker marines. I usually bring mine up to enchanted blue :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302481-tzeentchthousand-sons-colors/#findComment-3930327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skallagoose Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 I wanted to go something a little lighter- kind of how they describe the warp "great ocean" in the novel 'Thousand Sons'. Saw a video on youtube that was Sotek Green- is that a good color? -I ask because i play space wolves and the chart shows a light grey with some hint of blue, but in actuality its light blue with a hint of gray So really stuck between Sotek and Kantor Blue Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302481-tzeentchthousand-sons-colors/#findComment-3930479 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skallagoose Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 Caustic- that is a really nice scheme, and a good paint job Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/302481-tzeentchthousand-sons-colors/#findComment-3930481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aasfresser Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I favor my TS darker. Makes the yellow stripes on the headcrest pop more. Sotek Green could work. Could imagine a base of Inccubi Darkness, then a layer with thinned down Stegadon Green, then highlights with Sotek Green. Maybe a wash with Drakenhof Nightshade or Coelia Greenshade. But then its more than blue. If you go Sotek Green, try silver instead of gold for the trims. Should work nicely together.
