huh, interesting paint scheme. is there a backstory for the color scheme? I know sometimes i like the idea of breaking into a more colorful scheme myself.

Thank you, I started a new army a few years ago and want a unique color scheme. I ask a few friends for ideas but no go they couldn't give any ideas. So one day the wife ask if you should paint them grey/silver and purple. I went that sounds cool I'll try that and rest is history.

Here is W.I.P. pic of my Land Raider Ares.

Lion's Might

[Dark Rage]

Nice army silver and purple? Always thought a green army with purple trims would look quite nice, these have a sort of Gaurdians of the Covenant with a mix of Emperor's children. The paint job looks awesome the purple really goes well with the silver and also the green power weapons are a nice touch.

That chaplain on bike is a nice conversion and cant wait to see that Are's pattern painted up, the conversion looks great.

Got a chapter name yet? just throwing this one out as a thought, EC and GotC "Children of the Gaurdians".

Great Stuff!

Thanks just gave the Index Astartes entry a read, great army idea, nice background story.

[Grand Master Belial]

You should post your Index Astartes on the Brotherhood of Angels page. It can count up to TWO pearls in the PtR competition.

Thanks I might just do that. I finish the Ares here is the pic below.

Awesome, another group of purple Unforgiven. Very nice so far! I would love to see how you paint a dreadnought with your scheme, any chance we'll see one down the line?

[Dvmendoza]

I like the color scheme. I saw Flouresnt Yellow and neon green at the gameshop yesterday and thought hmmmm LOL.

[Brother Immolator]

A very radical approach of a paint scheme. I like it! What about the chapter symbol? I see BT and ravenwing markings are those for aesthetic reasons or is there a fluff behind?

The chapter sigil is a winged claw holding double pointed lightning bolt. The Ares was built for me but my friend put the wrong doors on and couldn't removed them, so I just paint it any way. The Ravenwing Icon is a stand in until I find an artist to help with the icon. Im no artist.

Don't worry, when it comes to freehand I cant even draw a straight line. There are lots of us out there

The doors don't look out of place, in fact they add character. One can say that they are sigils of a successful past crusade perhaps.

Thanks for the comments, I repainted my army and came up with this new scheme and its look great. I wll have more pics as time goes on. As Always C&C are welcome.

Master Gabriel Macleod, very interesting Chapter. You picked a distinctive combination, but it does look good together. My CnC at this point would be that your fabric doesn't really stand out from your armor at all. It appears that it is either silver or purple, so there doesn't seem to be a lot of distinction on the models. Also, be careful on having too many metallics all together, because it can definitely all get lost due to all the reflections and color bouncing light around. That said, I think that you have some very good work going on, so keep it up!

BB do you suggest the colors for my robes and loin choths. I had not found a suitable color and just annoyed with it. Shout to the Brothers of the Rock, Hey if guys can come up with coloring ofr my choth on my marines I would love to hear it.


Thanks

P.S.: Have A Merry Christimas and Happy New Year

[Bryan Blaire]

Hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well!

As far as the fabric, the silver and purple both seem relatively bright, so I would definitely do a deep, darker color. Generally yellow is considered complementary to violet, so possibly a deep mustard yellow? Possibly use Averland Sunset, shade with Casandora Yellow, highlight with Averland Sunset again and then use point highlights of Yriel Yellow.
