So the questions in the title. I'd be more inclined toward the second scheme as I'm not sure I'm good enough with an airbrush to pull off the first style right. None of these guys are finished but I'm really looking for opinions on the colour of the armour.
Scheme 1)






Scheme 2)


Thanks.

It could be the pictures, but the first scheme looks a bit muddled and muddy where the second definitely seems to be crisper.
From the pictures provided, i'd say the second one.

I would go with he second as well.

You may use anything I post, just remember to give me credit if used somewhere else.

For IF second is nice, though the first would make an awesome raptors chapter marine - definitely one of the nicer written fluff/backgrounds.

The second one by far... the first one doesn't look anything like Imperial Fists.

Not quite the color I would use for Raptors, but their fluff is phenomenal... A big part of why that are my favorite chapter.

Thanks for all the advice I ended up going for the second scheme. I painted up a few models to try out the scheme properly and I was quiet pleased with the outcome.

Some pics.
