Red or green lenses on a marine painted in a bleached bone color scheme?

If it makes a difference, any robes will be in kantor blue and I am using a lighter blue glow effect for plasma weapons as well as a red for the purity seal.

Thanks for any help you can give.

I would personally go with red, because it will contrast more with the bone color. Bone colors tend to have a fair amount of yellow in them. Blue would probably contrast the most, though.

Hmm I think green would look pretty cool with bone colored armor, but since you are doing dark blue robes I'd have to agree that red may be a better contrasting color.

If you can, try it out on a couple of test models first and see which one you like better!

What's your main accent colour? Going with lenses that match it help unify the scheme by not having too many different colours competing for attention.

For what it's worth, the Deathwing Terminators on GW's online store have yellow lenses...
