The question I have is would it be okay if I did a majority of my WoC Khorne Models with Orange for a good portion of their armour, along with brass (dwarven bronze and burnished gold), and gunmetal/mithril silver? They also have grey wolf fur, and a red cape.

Would this all work out fine, or would Khorne want to throttle me?

Khorne would want to throttle you anyays (remember who you are dealing with here!)
As long as they are killing alot and the blood is flowing, khorne won't mind if they are red or orange.

Back when I started playing, Games Workshop could not tell the difference between the colors Orange and Red.

So, in all of the fluff, they would say that these minis were wearing "Red." You would have pics of Goffs, Evil Suns, Blood Angels and World Eaters, and all of them were plainly wearing bright Orange.

Now, they even had a paint called "Blood Angel Orange" which still gets me.

So, as far as I can tell, Khorne has a Red/Orange colorblindness which is shared by most of his followers. So, he'll be cool with it.

Woohoo!
Except I'm not colourbli- Oh gak, don't kill me Khorne!

Here is a tale from liber chaotica:
Thus spoke the Red Warrior. with his voice of Drums and Death. And then he took his axe and cut each champion down, so that each may know the true touch of the BloodGod.
has nothing to do with the topic though
anyways orange is a good colour for worshippers of khorne

Remember he is a giant dog so he is colour blind.

I don't know how I didn't think of that before. Of course he's color blind.

Of course, that doesn't exactly excuse the Blood Angels or Evil Suns (if Red make go faster, what Orange do?) or the overall mix up of redness to orangeness. I guess orks might be colorblind too, and there's a possibility for one such a mutation in the Blood Angel geneseed too...

In the GRIMDARK future, there is only colourblindness.
