I tried doing a search on here and on google but couldn't find what I was looking for. What I'm wondering if anyone could share the various provincial colors of the different provinces. I'm awear of the colors and heraldry book my problem is that I can't distinquish various shades very well (light greens look yellow, light purples look like dark purple, dark browns look black, etc etc etc) so the book really doesn't help me much other then looking pretty. I've got my unit of outriders about 75% painted. All that's left is the skin and hair/beards (both of which are done last) and the bits of clothes sticking out of the armor. Those are going to be painted in different color patterns/schemes based on that particual outriders origin.

The old previous empire book has the province colours in it.

My bad, I misread the post. So, what province are you going for?

The latest White Dwarf has a big section on all the provincial colours and how to paint them with the new paints.

White Dwarf 388 May 2012 to be specific.

I'll wait until it shows up then before I continue working on my riders. Sometimes an issue arrives a few weeks before the month and others it's a few weeks after the month. Likely it'll show up tomorrow, but you never know.

Yeah, this white dwarf is definitely the way to go, especially if you are using the new paint line.

I have painted all my empire soldiers with a custom paint job.

Handgunners, crossbows and outriders are painted all-gray based on a Confederate soldiers, all complete with confederate flag standards.

My greatswords and knights are painted in the colours of my local football team, in black&white stripes. Their banner is the local town coat of arms.

Bowmen are painted in green/brown hunter colours.

State troops are yet to be painted
