Hello,

Looking to paint W40K Raptor's, but I am unable to find any specific guide how to make dull green color scheme.
Any tips/guides would be awesome

My green turned out way too vibrant for jungle themed space marines such as raptors..

Are you searching for nurgle themes? Those are usually the best dull green I see. Maybe some white/grey glazes would help tone down the brightness on your green in the meantime.

what do you mean raptors and jungle theme? Chaos raptors? what warband is your army from? If its deathguard I have a tutorial but probably not. If it's homebrew you can look for similar color schemes, probably a Salamanders tutorial, or dark angles, depending on the green you are looking for.

I think he means the loyalist Raptors chapter of Space Marines. They seem to use an olive drab scheme. Very militaristic and sensible.

If you don't mind using Vallejo paints, German Fieldgrey will get you a pretty good drab green. Their Luftwaffe Camo Green is a bit brighter, but also a fairly decent choice.

Yeah, should have widen the info that I was talking about Space Marine Raptors

I'm limited to GW paints here, so I'd stick wit them.
I'll look for Loren Forest GW for a base after I prime them with light grey.

Any tips should I use ogryn flesh or devlan mud for wash?

I know I've been looking for guides, but didn't come across any - that's why I'm asking how to keep it military dull green
