Just wondering if i have a straight bleached bone paint scheme for power armor what color would work well as a highlight for raised edges?

Skull White is normally my next step. But you'd be best to go 50/50 bleached bone/skull white, then do a final skull white highlight on the very edges.

If you use Velljo paints you have several more options. They released a color called off white last year for game color and also have a really nice model color called flat aluminum( that little gem of a pinat was reccomneded to me by Roy Kinsly a Golden deaomn winning paiter friend, its excelent). Those can both be used with bleached bone/ You will also Get more depth in your color if you under coat your bleach bone with Scorched brone then desert yellow, some also use the snakebite leather. Hope it helps.

Speaking of VMC - I usually use Dark Sand, then Pale Sand as progressive highlights to Bleached Bone. Just another route...
