I'm starting a project of painting a Horus Heresy army and I'm trying as much as possible to follow the fluff regarding armour colors and designs of my chosen Legion: the Imperial Fist. But regarding the colour scheme of the Apothecaries, I'm not a 100% sure on how they should be fluff wise.

Should they be painted as:

A - Like in 40k; white armour with one shoulder pad with the colour of their legion

or

B- Yellow armour and white shoulder pads?

The reason I'm not sure is because there is a good mix between the two online.

Thank you in advance for the help.

from what I've seen in the black books so far: it's personal taste. I've seen it anywhere from a white torso, to white shoulder pads, to no real difference between an apothecary's scheme and a regular legionaries scheme.

I would just go 40k majoriy white. That way it's obvious who the Apothecary is and it basically keeps in line with the books.
