I'm not sure, what colours to choose for my Sons of Horus army, Any ideas?
I've found some examples here http://warzone40k.com/how-to-paint-sons-of-horus but I need some more ideas, since I lack paints.
Actually, I love this concept

GW did a video about that colour scheme on youtube. You can also check the channel of the Apathetic Fish, he also did one.

In my case, I use waagh flesh+ Kabalite green, then nuln oil and then Sybarite green for the dry brush.

The colour scheme you posted seems too light for my tastes.

The weird thing about Sons of Horus is that they are depicted anywhere from what you posted to almost completely grey with a tinge of green, so really it's up to your preference.

I painted mine incubi darkness with sybarite green layers. This was with an airbrush though, so you would need an intermediary colour in there if you were to do it by brush.

Teena - that scheme you posted is my favorite so far for Sons of Horus, I think it's the perfect sea-green. I think that army was done by a guy who goes by "celsork" on Twitter. If you're on Twitter it might be worth asking him what paints he uses for his army.
