painted up my tau with blood red, blazing orange for highlight. Whats a good sept colour for blood red?

White

pictures?

first highlight is done but you can't really see cause of flash. Um i don't think white would look very good and i'm not to fond of it cause i used white as my sept for my last scheme which was shadow grey.

Definitely white.

Codex(or any 60%) Grey

It will Contrast just enough with the Red and mesh well with the Black.

It will also give you a nice "dark" feel to your Firewarriors.

Barring that you could go with Blazing orange or a yellow to get a "Lava-Feel"

I would also recommend a third color on your Crisis suits; Block out a few panels in the third Color to break up all the Flat red. Again Codex grey or similar dark-feel color if you wish to go that rout, or the Orange/Yellow(making the Sept color the other one) for the lava-feel.

I vote yellow, which would compliment the red nicely.

i tried blazing orange and it looks great. the contrast is unbelievably soothing for the eye. Thanks for the help!
ill probably use codex grey or adeptus grey for the sept colour. I just have to learn how to paint them XD.
