Hello Folks,

Have picked up a paintbrush for the first time in oooh... 2-3 years at least?

Trying to get back into it with my coverted Tyranid Carnifex - there's an additional pair of arms to install (with weapons) but currently trying out colour schemes.
I can't for the life od me work out what colour to make the non-carapace armour (i.e. the arms etc) and the fleshy parts.

Any suggestions of what might work with the colours used so far?

Thanks for any/all replies.

Edit:
I'm thinking about keeping the carapace black (maybe with some offwhite highlighting, rather than straight grey - perhaps a hint or red, if that doesn't look too pink) then a deep purple for the fleshy, jointy bits.
