Guiltysparc Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I think purple when i hear the word lich...maybe a bone colored armor with purple trim or vice versa?

JeffJedi Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Are the Imperial or Chaos? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4419481 Share on other sites More sharing options...
K9ll4 Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 they are imperial and are a blood angel successor chapter and i thought of purple armor with red eyes and copper trim and on the right knee there would be roman number squad marking and on the left knee there would be a company marking that would be blood angels squad markings i also thought of bone white so i was thinking maybe my pilots would have bone white armor with copper trim and shoulder pads would be purple maybe i will make the standard marines have bone white helmets and rest of the shoulder pads expect the trim Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4419484 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'm bumping this to the Forge, where you'll get more help :tu: I think purple would be a great BA successor scheme, especially if you make it on the redder side. A rich copper or bronze would make for a perfect metallic complement along with white/bone so it sounds to me like you've already got a good colour scheme Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4419509 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Casman Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Well, I just bumped this over to the BA forums... Amazing that we did it at the same time, 'Fish.

Nicodemus Doloroso Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I definitely think purple looks good on a BA successor. That's how mine is being painted up! If you want to go with a redder purple you'll have to look outside the Citadel line because I think the colours I'm using (Naggaroth Night/Xereus Purple) is the only one they have.

Charlo Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Looks cool! Only thing is it looks a lot like the 30k Emperor's children. But that isn't really a proper issue!

Firepower Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I do love me some purple, and that's a pretty good choice of palette. And don't worry, 'looking like' other Chapters is a silly thing to be concerned with, considering the overwhelming number of canon Chapters that are nearly identical.

K9ll4 Posted June 15, 2016 Author Share Posted June 15, 2016 well thanks for those responses to it i was thinking that captains would not have bone white helmets and that the veterans would have copper helmets librarians if they have helmets they would be white and the shoulder pad on the right would be purple the thing that the helmet would be white its so that i can differentiate the sergeants and techmarines would have purple armor expect the helmet and the knee that has the mechanicus symbol on it the shoulder pads would be bone white and the chaplains will have purple shoulder pad just cause Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4420807 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduddy Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 My Emperor's Children use a base of Naggaroth Night. Then I layered a 50/50 mix of Xereus Purple and Genestealer. Edge highlight with Slaanesh Gray. Spot shading with Nuln Oil.

CaptainHelion Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 considering the overwhelming number of canon Chapters that are nearly identical. How many Ultramarine successors are variously blue, right? Just do what you think looks cool, and that'll work better than anything else!

Dont-Be-Haten Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I love the purple and bone! It is right frustrating to paint sometimes though, but if you're confident with it cheers! Are you going to keep red lenses on the bone helm? And is the shoulder trim gold, bronze, or a bright brown/dull orange?

K9ll4 Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 actually the trim is copper but it may look like gold or bronze Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4421292 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bukimimaru Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Purple and gold are a great combo. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4421321 Share on other sites More sharing options...
K9ll4 Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 yes purple goes well with gold but then they would look even more like emperor's children Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323200-color-scheme-for-my-chapter/#findComment-4421363 Share on other sites More sharing options...
