franzbacco:

Hey guys I have in my desk about 2600 points of old hatties ready for be coloured.

I’m having big troubles with the colour scheme…

What do u think is better:

-An old 90’s “ultrabright” color scheme like a cartoon

-A modern colour scheme with use of washes and moder tecniques

I hope u can help me :slight_smile:

P.s sorry for the english but i’m italian !

nitroglysarine:

I’m going for a nurgle style colours with mine, metals and light wood. works really well.

I’d say for the old ed minitures, I’d be tempted to stay with the safe colours. But some ultrabright would look awesome if you are a good painter!

franzbacco:

i’m doing some colour scheme tests, yeah “ultrabright” is very cool lot of ktm-orange lol.

I think ill go on coloureful mode!

nitroglysarine:

I’ve always wanted to try a red/orange against greeny/turquoise colour scheme with my empire, but never got it to look right.

Might work here?

Good luck on such a big painting schedule!

franzbacco:
