I promised my brother to paint his Ultramarines battle demi company (why you ask? I dont know either....).
As a Dark Angels player I don't know what colors work best . Since I am using an airbrush and dont like how GW Air colors behave I only use Vallejo Game Air or Model Air colors.

So my DA workflow is pretty simple: Dark green Basecoat, Dark green + Sick Green (50/50) zenital highlights, Sick Green spot highlights.
My brother want's a rather dark look, similar to my dark angels, so I would like to adapt my color scheme to the ultramarines color scheme - what colors would you choose for this?


I was thinking:

Basecoat:


Zenital Highlights:


Spot Highlights:




I don't have any blue colors yet, so there is no way of testing beforehand. Any advice is appreciated!

I didn't use a darker shade than UM blue because I preshaded with black/grey/white primer and used enamel washes for the lining, using a dark brown so they aren't as brightly blue as using a dark blue or black for panel lining. Edge highlights are VGC Wolf Grey. Whole army was painted in about 3 weeks this way
