I don't particularly like green, so Saim-Hann. I think they are more interesting visually than green and black, both of which are quite un-grabby colours as far as the human brain is concerned, while red and black are kind of the universal "danger colours" to look out for in nature.

Not that I can vote any more...but i'd have said green too. Like Silver, I'm not a fan of green.

So maybe do like a cousin craftworld with black and red? Teh funny thing is, I asked a couple of people at my local gaming club and they said "The Green and Black looks way cooler!" Yeah, sorry about the poor image quality. Had to get the right lighting etc. and then it just came out like that By the way, I made it on DOW Soulstorm and it looked sweet!!

You can paint your stuff however you want (I can't see your images however as they are blocked at work). I'm just saying that black and green a very neutral colours as far as the brain is concerned.

Red and black (mostly because of the red) do get the attention of the brain as red is a danger colour, meaning it makes us focus on it. They also have a better contrast with one another than green and black, IMO.

Dont go with Saim-Hann, its really overused to be honest.

Also, the green one looks very cool, but Im unsure of how would it look in squads.
