I have a contingent of Grey Knights but I loath panting them to look the same as every other player in the greater North American continent, i.e., Necrons with red weapons. I've already got a Necron army so I don't really need another army that looks just like it.

I'm thinking along the lines of a halved color scheme using blue and green as the principal colors. The blades of the power weapons will be red nmm (if I can pull it off). Where I'm stuck is the aquilla. I don't know if I want to use black but I dislike how red and yellow looked in the painter. Does anyone have any links to a scheme that is similar? I'd like some suggestions, even including an alternate scheme if necessary.

Well boo, you can't say I didn't try. Did you look at Boltgun metal for the Aquila?

I think he's just trying to use BnCs painter to get ideas.

Actually, Steelhalo makes a fair point. It makes things a little easier, given that the pages of the book will likely be white with either a gold or brass colored sword.

I'm looking at the link dralend posted and while making different squads different colors is rather interesting, I've not done a halved or quartered scheme before and am actually thinking that I should do it just for the experience. The NMM red and yellow in those shots are really inspiring. I "might" make my Purifiers a red/yellow halved scheme. Or maybe not. It depends on how well I can handle basic colors.
