Hi there,

Im thinking about starting Genesis Chapter. In the codex it seems they have yellow trims (which I tried and looks quite good), however after googling Ive seen few Genesis having golden trims instead...

Here is an example:

I think I like this scheme more (it has more bling ), but Im unsure whether it is ok fluff-wise - there's not much information about Genesis around at all. So I wonder - if you would played against me and I would have Genesis marines with golden trims, would it be ok for you?

Any opinion is appreciated

I often play with marines that don't even have their arms on. People don't usually care about something like the color of the trim on the shoulder pads. So, short answer. As long as you stick to just one rules set I don't care what colors they are painted with. Just as long as I can tell which model is what type.

I've seen Ultramarines painted with either yellow or gold and both look fine. Just stick to one colour through out your army and you'll be fine.

Thank you for the tips I think I'll go with the golden then!
