Hi guys.

Recently, I've been thinging about redoing my grey knights because I'll tell the truth, they arn't that good. So, what I though I could do is take a mystical looking grey and add some of vagello metal medium (is that the right stuff which makes non metalic colours sort of metalic?). Can anyone suggest a good colour? I was thinking maybe ortress grey. I don't own many greys so I'm really looking for some help on this.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

When mixing these types of greys try using Bleached Bone or equivalent instead of white for a warmer softer feel.

Vallejo have a model colour called Dark Blue Grey and also do a couple of varieties of sea grey which might do the job. There is also a french mirage blue/grey that looks a bit more interesting than the usual grey.

Thanks Legoburner. I think I'll try out dark blue grey along with medium sea grey to see which on looks better. Also, what do you guys think would be best;

Flouresent yellow NFW's
Flouresent blue NFW's
Flouresent green NFW's

I've seen green done before and it looks quite good, blue is the classic and I'm certain that it would look pretty awesome as well. Yellow is a bit rare yet I think it would go well with the grey. What do you guys think would be better?

Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control. Information control. Emotion control. Battlefield control. Everything is monitored, and kept under control. Core has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control. All in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction. And he who controls the battlefield, controls history. Core has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war... becomes routine.
