Hola,
I'm getting back into 40k after a long hiatus. I gave away all my gaming gear a while ago and will be starting from scratch. I settled on Ad Mech and need to figure out how to paint them. I am leaning towards FW Lucius. I can probably use similar paints to a PoM force from warmachine for the cream and crimson. It's the almost black that I'm wondering about. I am thinking of panzer grey from the Vallejo model color line. I played FoW and used that color on my early war German armor. It's a very dark grey. What colors did people use to get the almost black but not black? I prefer to not be mixing a custom color if I can avoid it.

I have rolled craps in my Google search to find people that used this color scheme and actually documented anything. Worse case scenario I just go with Mars, since I'm not sure about the orange for Ryzae(sp?)
