The armour is Salamanders Green with a right black kneepad.

The shoulderpad with the iconography of the chapter is a different story.

Which looks better?

I’d go for A.

To me option b is a bit too dark angelly. They both look pretty good though.

Please excuse any spelling errors. I use a tablet frequently and software keyboards are a pain!

Honestly for me, it's Option A. It just looks and feels right and a much better fit. Whether that's a personal bias or because you mentioned Salamander green and my brain just put the green and black together as the "correct" one I don't know.
