Got really bored of painting dark colours thouoght id do something a bit different heres a start not too sure what else to take in a chaos army any suggestions would be helpful cheers

It's looking alright. Perhaps a few washes woul help an add some more black to the armour, imo Emporers children should be about 40% - 60% black so that they look chaotic. This might help : http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/blogPost.jsp?aId=15900043a

Looking good so far!

I agree with the washed, but I have always liked EC.

Agreed, a bit much on the pink, it overpowers everything...

So add a bit of black then. The pink was just to make a change never seen an army this pink before

I think this has the potential to look great (at least on the Daemons) if a darkening process is used.
And a pink Tank would be sort of horrifying.

If you do a wash of 50/50: baal red/asurman blue alot of the work will be done for you. Then you might want to consider a watered down wash of asurman blue. That way alot of the shading work is done just by washes

The pink assaults my senses and hurts my eyes.... WELL DONE, that's EXACTLY what noise marines of the Emperor's Children are supposed to do! But I would add in a few black parts to make the pink pop out more.

As Promised

I like this pink!

Your land raider looks nice.

What Pink color is that? Since GW decided to stop making tentacle pink I need to find a good pink to get my Emperors Children up and running.

Better on the eyes, do the imp eagles purple just to add another bit of colour.

I used a pot of skull white and just added blood red til i got a dark pink. I just add white for each highlight.

I did find valejo's pink nearly matches tenticle
