Hi all, I'm looking for tips or thoughts on what colour the horns and other growths should be on dark skinned Poxwalkers. Mostly I only find pale skin or very tanned with the coloured horns that sprout out of them.

I have a few painted up with darker skin but I'm stuck in what colour the horns and growths should be. Would they look better black like shiny obsidian? Bone colour to contrast the skin? If so how to paint them as such?

And another question, what colour should their clothes/uniforms be to work well with these skin types? (I had planned on just going a simple death guard styled green but grubbier to match a few of the others but I'm interested in hearing opinions.

Pic related as the test model Ive been going through.

I have just painted mine in the usual bone colour. The contrast looks great and everybody's bones are the same colour under the skin.
