So I am looking for like a sickly/corrupted green with a tint of purple to it.
Would mixing purple/green together give me this effect?
ll try and find an example of what I want online.

Base black.
Shadow / wash purple.
Edge / dry-brush green.
To stand it out more at sharp corners edge highlight yellow.

Mixing these I assume or are these layers?
My idea was to mix the colors to get the effect, kinda want a darker one that looks like they're all sick/dying but I'm not a big fan of the normal sickly green colors Automatically Appended Next Post: Dunno if I can post links here but this is close to what I'm thinking

Not the sickly green I'm explaining but this mix is outside my skill lvl so sick green sounds better

Do you have a picture of roughly what you are going for? edit never mind.
What kinda painting tools do you have?
Assuming just a brush you could blend, or layer and wash the purple and green
IIRC some tutorials for nurgle stuff was just to paint the model white and have at it with multiple different washes of brown, purple and majority green

This is the exact color I'm trying to make right here in this pic.

Something close:
Games Workshop: "Steel Legion Drab"
Vallego: "Green Brown"
P3: "Battledress Green"
See if that works for you...
