I've narrowed it down to only Forge World Metalica, which has a Skitarii paint scheme in the 'dex, as well as Legio Metalica, which has a textual description of colors, and Knights in the form of House Raven. What other Forge Worlds do you know of which fit this bill?

Alternatively, I've been leaning more towards Forge World Lucius, since the paint scheme is more "Mars-like" without being indistinguishable from Mars Skitarii, and because I love their lore/backstory. Lucius also happens to be the home of Legio Astorum, whose color scheme I absolutely love, and which has a logo which I think I'd love the challenge of freehanding. However, as far as I know, Lucius doesn't have any documented Knight Worlds affiliated with it. I remember reading from old fluff that sometimes Knight Worlds get "tithed" in the form of Knights that get permanently attached to a Titan Legion. In this case, would it be unreasonable/fluffy to have my Knights painted up in Legio Astorum colors and bear Legio Astorum iconography? (Also, Lucius produces the awesome Lucius-pattern Warhounds, which I prefer so much more design-wise...)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7851739.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7851739.page GMT Adeptus Mechanicus, Skitarii, Knights, and Titan Legions ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7854366.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7854366.page GMT Adeptus Mechanicus, Skitarii, Knights, and Titan Legions Its your army after all, do as thy pleases

The ambiguous answer is "there are millions of worlds to choose from so you can choose what you want'

personally i did the former - Ordo Reductor as my main force with taghmata, shattered legion marines a knight household and a warhound; all with a common coulor scheme always including wild rider red, balthasar gold and leadbelcher. leadbelcher basecoat, red for armoured panels and gold for decorative edging and areas that i think will come into contact with lots of heat and/or wear.
I also use warplock bronze where i think something needs to be non-conductive or resistant to compression.

Be sure to post some pictures of your stuff as you go!

I think I decided to go with Lucius. For my Knights, I'm going to paint them up in Legio Astorum colors but leave the shield on the right shoulder with a House Taranis insignia. I was reading up more on their fluff in the 'dex and WD, and there was a line that stated that Taranis knights frequently get attached to titan battlegroups permanently. It's not unrealistic, then, to presume that Taranis Knight(s) may have been attached temporarily for a campaign, and after said campaign formalized their attachment to a permanent one.

A pity about the transfer sheets that GW just released, though. Mars, Metalica and Ryza?!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7857039.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7857039.page GMT Adeptus Mechanicus, Skitarii, Knights, and Titan Legions

In any case, I think this would be a good thread to ask if this is an entirely new mechanicus canon or if forgeworlds always had different colors. Does anyone actually know?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7885719.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7885719.page GMT Adeptus Mechanicus, Skitarii, Knights, and Titan Legions http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7885757.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/649642/7885757.page GMT Adeptus Mechanicus, Skitarii, Knights, and Titan Legions
