Color Recommendations

Color Recommendations

I painted this harlequin (bottom left) but didn't really like the way the red looks. The colored pencil drawing is closer to what I want and as you can see I tried mixing colors. None of my mixes really matched what I wanted. What paints would you recommend to approximately match the pencil. Recommendations for the blue would also be appreciated but this sub isn't "BlueWarhammer"

So. Last week I published some templates for 40k factions so every factions can create their own homebrewed color schemes and base of the lore. (You guys have been really nice, thank you very much!) and... welp I liked doing all that stuff and wanted to do more. So I created a drive where I put all the templates of the factions (In HD) here: All the templates

But wait, there is more! I started to add some ressources I used to do the templates so you can all easily use them if you want to craft your own template page. It's still barebone but I'll try to update some more when I can. I also added a little picture for the size of all the fonts on the template and the name of the font (Elegant Typewriter - by Lukas Krakora) so you can easily change some of the stuff as you want.

There's actually 42 templates, I don't think I'll add a lot more as I mainly covered all the lineable factions and subfactions of the 10th edition (plus lot of obscure astra militarum regiment because... well I wanted to draw them). Maybe I'll try to make some Necromunda later but work is coming back and time is running low again!

Anyway, I sincerly hope it help anyone who like me love creating homebrew lore, even for ourselves, and welp... now at least I have my own drive to easily do mines.

NB: You can use the png I posted or the one in the "Transparent" folder which only have the line on it. Classic png with blank can easily be painted under if you change the layer in "Multiply" mode, which will let all the colors behind white being visible anyway.
