So I've almost finished this, but I'm not sure about the cream colour. Any suggestions?

It looks quite pale for a cream colour. I normally think of cream as being a pale yellow-brown, which I rather like and would go well with the blue.

Is it lighting, my screen or something? Maybe it's darker in life than it looks.

Its ushabti bone, so it is pale for a cream colour. Its also a little difficult to layer straight over a grey undercoat, so painting it as my main colour will take time. What do you think of the weathering?

Ushabti bone is what used to be called Bleached bone and matches a colour called Rattan that I use out of spray cans on some of my Tau scenery. It is to my eye a slightly colder, greyer rather than yellow cream. But I have to confess I have red-green colour vision defect so I can't be sure.

I like the weathering. Won't it be hard work to do for a whole army?

Yeah, but the end result will hopefully be worth it
