    About to start a brand new lizardmen army. The starting colour scheme will be like the lizardmen pictured but without ultramarine blue and instead terradon turquoise.

    My question is should the scales be black or dark blue. I have done it up on some old Gretchen to get an idea of how it would look.

    I lean more towards the dark blue (the one on the viewer's right).

    I have to admit I'm not sure happy with either, I wonder if dark angel green would work. I don't have it but I might try to mix terradon turq with black

    I'd repoll.this if I wasn't just spamming the board

    1 (jacket extra layer of terradon turq, shorts two extra layers)
    2 (3 part terra turq and one part black)
    3 (2 parts terra turq and one part lev blue)

    I'm sure in person the colors look more noticeably different, but it's hard for me to tell much difference in this photo. To that point, either of them will likely give the general color scheme for which your going.

    True all around.

    I know in my heart that the mix of black and TT looks best but only marginally over straight TT but reflects a lot more stuffing around
