Hi,
i am about to start painting some Space Marines, but cant decide on a color scheme. I like the Morifactors helmet variant, so to help me decide i made this collection of possible color scheme (thanks to Bolter&Chainsword).

Unfortunately it am now even less ready to decide.
The only thing i know for sure is that R-3 looks like Santa Claus.

I havent decided on chapter name and symbol yet. It is likely to be a Ultramarine decendent chapter (yes, generic to the max...).
Shoulder badged would follow the Codex Astartes and be white/light grey with black numbers. Same colors for the (yet unknown) chapter symbol.
Company colors would be marked by the color of the left kneepad (not in the pics yet).

I guess i am just looking for some input and suggestions before painting up a first miniature.

Personaly I like o2 but in my opinion with white helmet it would be better.

The two-colord helmet was what i liked about the Mortifactors color scheme.
But now i am not even sure about that anymore.
