I'm currently working on a Deathguard Heldrake and could use some advice. I've clipped some of the spikes off, drilled holes in the wings, replaced the hades autocannon with a cut up flamer from a rhino combi flamer(got the drake used). Now I'm currently painting in the Deathguard scheme(green/silver), I plan on adding rust effects via Typhus Corrosion/Ryza Rust, and was thinking about doing some osl on the flamer/inside of mouth/eyes. Red/orange/yellow is the obvious default choice, but would purple/pink/white be a better contrast? Any thoughts?

Purple/pink/white would be a sharper contrast, so I vote for that.

Go for purple/pink, two under used colours.

Thanks for the input! I haven't worked with them yet, and I've seen some really nice pics of models using purple/pink for things like power weapons and chaos flamer weapons.
