I would like to paint up some Unforgiven and am looking for color schemes for Heresy-era Dark Angels. Anyone have an examples to share?

My understanding is that the armor is just black, with white icons. Is that correct?

That's my understanding of it.

Lexicanum has plenty of images to help with this.

I thought heresy era DA were black armour with red icons? Or has that been changed recently?

Rogue Trader pics show black with red crest, Space Hulk shows a (cool) terminator with a red crest in white lining, newer pics show black with white crest and insignia or black crest on white pauldron.
The covers of the heresy-era books and illustration in the new codex show a green-tinted black with a variety of coloured pauldrons, including lots of chequers.

...so there you go.
