I'm currently working on some decals for various armies. I worked up some Space Wolves decals, but I'm debating if I should keep them black and white or give them color. Here are the two choices. Lemme know what you think.



For the colored sheet, there would be variations of the original colors. Examples are below.



Also, I'm having a hard time finding a good picture of the 13th Great Company emblem, so if anyone has one, please help me out.

You: "So it's a tank shock until it hits a vehicle, and then it's a ram, not a tank shock, and then it goes back to being a tank shock later!"
Me: "Yeah it doesn't really say any of that in here, how about we just play by what's written in here?"

All depends on paint scheme for rest off models.

When light colors are used a dark emblem works.
When dark colors are used us light color like white.

But if you wanna use colors it all returns to rest of model scheme.
Maybe us the color from decals return in rest of models detail.
I found that the old Luna wolves decal look nice

It might not help out in your poll, it all depends for my count

Standing right behind you...

I think black and white works better, the emblems shouldn't be too pretty and colourful as to make the model complicated.

I appreciate the input, but remember that these are for Space Wolves, so the paint scheme is pretty much already set, except for minor variations between painters. The symbols would find themselves on a black, yellow, red, or blue/grey background.
