I've seen lots of necrotic greens, and ghostly blues, and even a very nice purple (which made the mortis engine it was used on look awesome). What about red? My army is mainly consisted of skeletons and shades, so it lacks that lovely visceral quality that you get with zombies and ghouls. Then I thought, what about using red for the necrotic energy? (spirits, skeleton inner glow, ect) Nothing says 'Vampire!' like blood red. But I'm not sure if its feasible. I'd like the red spirits, but I'm afraid of A) doing it too thick, so it looks like a solid thing instead of being ethereal, or B) coming out pink. Less 'Rage filled spirit' and more 'Deceased Lord Laffy Taffy'.

Would I simply paint them in light greys and then use a red wash? Or would it be better to paint them a light red, wash red, and then give them some stark white or light grey dry brushing? Or something else entirely?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/511399/5347308.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/511399/5347308.page GMT WM Khador DoomReavers swords for the effect and see if its into the style your looking for.
