This is the basic scheme to my sisters army. With tanks and bigger pieces being the blue color with the green trim.

I'll try to polish her off an repost finished pics. My sisters army is my slowest as far as paint and growth. But someday it will be finished and huge.

More later including character models.

My only comment would be that the armor and robes are too similar in color.

Must say, though, I like the teal/turquoise of the armor. I insist it's an underused color.

I have to agree with HFJor, the similar colours mean no contrasts, which equals not as pretty of a model.

I really like the turquoise, been considering it myself for various thingss, but it needs a contrast colour.

Here is a marine who did well in a Golden Demon competition (sorry to the original artist of the model, I'm afraid I didn't put down anywhere whose it was or what chapter it is), used turquoise really well with primarily gold and secondarily silver as contrast colours:



Maybe try something similar?

Great color choices on the sister, though I think the blue could be a darker blue with that blue as highlight. Little too BRIGHT blue with the subdued turquoise color.

Looking to see her finished.

The trim areas are still black that will give the contrast once its done. Nice model hmm i think that was in a gd i entered.. nahh never mind it was a squad that looked similar.

The blue will be nearly white when complete. I also have a green armour and a red armoured sister just trying to get a scheme thats differant.
