Hey all,

I am looking to create a small detachment of Space Marines using the Red Hunters as my Chapter.

I am looking for some thoughts/advice on what to use as the base color for the red armor.

Khorne Red or Mephiston Red for base layer? I am leaning towards Khorne but would like to hear some thoughts before I commit.

Thanks

- Prime white.
- Paint/wash with very watered down Evil Sunz Scarlet. Repeat until covered, but each successive layer will darken the model slightly.
- Weapons are the usual black & metal.
