I whipped up some test models for my Warriors of Khorne unit. I cant decide which I like better. Hopefully the differences show up well enough in these photos. I used the same main body for both so the comparison would be better

So, ceteris parabis, which shade of armor looks better? The one on the left wwas washed in Baal Red and highlighted with Blood Red/Blazing orange mix. The one on the right was washed in Devlan Mud and highlighted with blood red.

Here are some photos in various light.

I honestly cannot tell the difference.

Nice models tho.

IMHO, the one on the left looks slightly more vibrant. almost looks like blood that has almost finished drying.

I am not the blood god, but I agree with Dattrukk, left looks better.

Sometimes the picture does not truly show the models proper, so keep that in mind to our opinions.

I personally like the left one because the red seems slightly brighter and more crisp.

Prefer the one on the left 'cus you can see the highlights better.

Against popular opinion I like the one on the right. The left one seem a tad to bright and clean for a howling mad warrior of chaos.

Cheers,

Thanks for the input. I think I will go with the lighter one as the votes leaned that way and I feel like it shows up a little better when viewing the models from a few feet away.
