Looking for a color scheme for my Haemonculus Coven, and I really like this Coven of the Black Descent paint scheme, but I don't really do much in greens (pretty much all I've done are my GB Hunters' Guild, and they were more of a forest green), so I'm having trouble placing the colors on the sort've jade parts (at least, I'd call it jade). I'm guessing like Caliban Green with Warboss for a layer and Biel-tan for a shade, but I'm far from positive and I have no idea what to use for a highlight. Thoughts? What about the flayed flesh apron? Almost seems like it's like a dark red-brown like Mournfang, layered with a dark fleshtone like Bugman's glow, edged with what kinda looks like a tiny bit of yellow?

You probably want to use the same techniques as painting warp stone and painting marble.

Though jade can be anywhere from black to dark green to light teal.

Edit: woops i miss red horrably.

Hmmmm, it's a good deal darker than I'm thinking, but he also does so little highlighting, I wonder if the same color scheme might work with more of a highlight.

That scheme colours will likely be from the GW blue-greens, kabalite green and sybarite green. Pehaps shaded with Coelia Green shade or a bit of Incubi Darkness in the recesses.
