Got a freshly sprayed emp champ here ready for a paint job, thing is, I don't want the vanilla black look.
I'm thinking either:
Bronzed armour with crimson tabbard
OR
Iron armour with...crimson tabbard.
Eyes are green (like rest of army) and black sword with possible green trimmings..
Suggestions/feedback??

Like the strait Iron/Crimson. Or Iron/Purple. But I like purple.

That does look ace my friend  damn I'm still stuck between the two, I love that bronze look, but the Iron scheme like Knights of yore is still appealing

I say you try both on two test models and go from there. Worst case you can use one as the veteran and another for rank and file (or maybe Fast Attack option or Elites, ...)

Mmmm well I'm inclined to go Iron as it fits in with the theme of gritty, chipped and worn haha, thanks for all the suggestions/tips though

Did mine white with some weathering. I've clean him up since I took this but the feel is still the same.
