Help identifying this colour scheme.


Recommended Posts

Hi all. I’m starting to put together some new tyranids to update my collection and am toying with the idea of a new colour scheme. I saved this image a while back as one that I really liked but can’t for the life of me work out where I saw it, likely on a fb or ig feed. Does anyone recognize it so I can try to find more info on how to reproduce it. Thanks.

I spent 30 mins looking :sweat: no luck so far... it does look to consist of Contrast paints...  i thought it might be a Darcy Bono creation... !?.. 

 

Good luck in your endeavours !! (i'll keep searching though :thumbsup:)

 

Cheers, Mithril
