Just finished all the armor and now on to cloth bits! I used greenish white, deep yellow and dark Prussian blue (ak) over a purple undercoat.

    Gonna necro this post so I can ask about your priming color selection.

    Those purple/ blues aren’t very apparent in the final model at first, but the colors you chose obviously do a lot of work in creating the look. How did you decide on that color scheme of priming?

    I mentioned in another post some orc armies I wanted to paint, including a red-skinned “fire ork” army. I want to avoid just priming them in a color that makes up most of the model to get some more depth like I see in your final products. My first guess would be to shoot some dark purple/blue from below and use a yellow from above? Does that sound similar to how you would approach that color scheme, or am I way off base?
