hey guys,
I’m painting up some bronze space marines and pale mint green death guard. There is terrain and ruins I want both sides to fight across, and what I have is pictured below.
What colours would people suggest I do the ruins to take the colours of the army as well as red crusty earth bases into account?
I’m really not sure whether to go with a colour that contrasts to both force, matches the base, is more subdued or vibrant or what to do. Or even if I should go complimentary
Any advice would be appreciated ?
Thanks in advance! ?
You’re probably better off trying to match the ruins to the colour of the boards you’re using rather than the miniatures. If you’re going to play on a board that also has a reddish colour to it then I would use the blue/black colour scheme you see on some of the box photos
I would say that this would not obscure either of your forces (the pale green or the gold) and it’s unlikely you have a blue or black background for the board so it will stand out against that too. You could always get a weathering pigment to match the board and add some dirt to them when you’re finished.
