I like the scheme, Bill. Very nice work overall :) |

Would suggest the edges of the bases be black like the flat surface, rather than red, as it dilutes the appearance of the red on the armour. |

Yep paint the bases either black or a neutral color, i.e. brown or grey. Overall good job and evocative. Chaos is the most fun army to play.  |

I think that's right, and looking at them a bit more, I think blue is not the right colour for some of the highlights. Blue is a cool colour and the fierceness of the red armour is compromised quite a bit by it. Yellow, tan, orange, or a yellowish metallic (brass, gold, bronze) would complement the red armour better I think. |

I dunno, I kind of like the contrast with the red. |

I dunno, I kind of like the contrast with the red. The contrast is fine -- that's not the point really. The point is that blue is a cool colour, and so it cools down the models quite a bit. |

The blue doesn't look quite right. I'd test a few models out for a steel or anodized black look. What about making the blue handles a little more dinged up looking? What brand/hue red is that? |
