  • Creating schemes can be a massive roadblock to painting your army. You want to be unique and stand out but also not making an ugly scheme. In this video, I show you everything I might consider while developing your own scheme, actually do it, and then refine it for painting large quantities of miniatures.

    Something I often do is look at sports team colors.
    Seriously. Especially when you consider more recently created teams, color theory goes into their design choices. People are paid a significant amount of money to design the uniforms, etc. Trust they'll look good on your minis because they usually will.

    Also take care when it comes to RATIO of your colour choices. For example: when thinking about the WARMTH of colours: either going for 90% warm colours and 10% cold details for example or the other way around is gonna give you an awesome feel of contrast and attention to certain things. Easy example for this: painting a blood Raven space marine in a warm dark Red and then adding a few cold green or neon green visor, blaster or mashinery detail is really gonna make everything more interesting and set a better contrast then just putting a warm buttery green eyevisors onto an already bright red clown...to even further that offset one can play with the other techniques mentioned in this great video!

    • @jambamenome8481

      I remember coming across a 60/30/10 rule for character design. You pick three colours, one covers 60% of the character, the next 30%, and the last 10%. It's a rough template to play with, but it works well with your ratio. Like, a winter-gear soldier with white armour/overalls, some blue/grey areas, and then a yellow/orange visor. Makes the colours pop :D

    This is a fantastic video. I took multiple years of art classes in highschool, but always appreciate a refresher on color theory and it's opportunities/applications (especially when discussed in the context of a hobby I really enjoy). I have been thinking about painting a set of Orange marines, and questioning how I can include blue in it without making just straight up orange and blue marines. I think painting in some shadows with a touch of dark navy, and highlighting black accents with a blue/grey highlight would look really good.

    I decided to apply your whole bit about adding flavor to your army to get your color scheme with my Sisters of Battle. I play the Order of the Bloody Rose, and if I had to define them in a phrase it would be "Doomslayer Nuns", they're by far the most firebranded and aggressive in their zealotry of the Orders Militant, I wanted to reflect that by having their weapons, armor and scenery caked in the blood of their enemies, I had some of the bolter barrels covered in blood to show they'd been fired at point-blank, for example, and add some flecks of blood to the faces, armor, robes and what-not.
    I also decided to spice them up with some chipping battle-damage, as the 8th Edition Codex states the Bloody Rose don't take a single rest or respite until the job of annihilating the mutant, alien and heretic is done, to reflect they'd been on campaign without a break for quite some time. That also tied in with having them covered in blood, it's not only a kind of battle-trophy to them, but it reflects how they're beyond taking so much as a moment to re-polish their armor to make them look more like the heroes of the Imperium like the Order of the Ebon Chalice might.
    For the bases I wanted to have them in a Cathedral setting not only to reflect the whole motif of the Adepta Sororitas, but to have a more narrative aspect of echoing how the Saint of the Bloody Rose, Saint Mina was praying in a chapel before being ambushed by a heretical cult, after which she slew them to a man before dying of her wounds, and now her descendants are caught in the same sort of situation, where the Cathedral stone is broken, cracked and running red with blood.
    I know that's a bit of a ramble, but maybe I'm taking a page out of your book in that ;) I do think it was a fun brain-storming session, and I can't wait to put it in practice. I'm going to try out some contrast paint, although applying it more conservatively than the old GW tutorials reccomended to get a cleaner look.

    You suggested using Gimp or Paintshop to have a preview of your scheme: From Gimp I know it (and I would assume a paytool like Paintshop has something similar): You can enable extra filters for viewing your image to see what a colorblind person would see. With this you could even paint your units, so they look nice for the color blinds.

    Good video Scott, thanks. You talked about some color tools. I have an app on my phone called "paint rack". Not only does it have a inventory tool with most of the popular hobby paint line. It also has a tool that uses the camera on the phone to match colors you see. It will also use your inventory to show you what you own that's close to those colors you pick out.

    Wasn't sure what to expect when I clicked on this video, but it was packed with useful advice and encouragement for people to take on the challenge of creating a custom paint scheme. It's definitely a personal thing. If you rely on someone else to tell you what or how to come up with a scheme you may as well just copy the box art. Loved the results on your chaos duders though, simple but effective scheme. Great video man

    Another one to consider is sometimes the basing scheme. It can often influence how your paint scheme will fit or should look.

    Another good resource from my graphic design days were the Color Index pocket books by Jim Krause which were pages and pages of 4-5 color combinations that worked with variants. There’s a new Color Index XL larger book with updated and expanded color swatches and all are now 5 color combinations. Oh, and all the books had cmyk, rgb, and hex codes for the colors.

    Another way for space marine players to test color schemes is to go to bolter and chainsword space marine Painter, it let's you play around with colour and when your don it gives you a list of paints you might want to use.

    Great tips in this vid as always!
    Just started painting my Nighthaunt and went for a mix of
    Gauss blaster into Kabalite green and Incubi darkness
    Then blended them with hexwraith
    After that I highlightet with some more gauss blaster and then another highlight layer with some white mixed with the gauss.
    Came out great!

    I always like to consider pushing contrast with different finishes, Using metallics for example to help sneak in those extra colours. I was able to convince a friend who originally going for a teal and black scheme on some dark eldar , but was never quite satisfied with the end results, to throw in some bronze on things like knee pads, filigree and other bits and adding that 3rd "detail" colour really helped make the whole scheme pop

    Thank you for another informative video Scott! I just wanted to add that there is an app called Impcat, that lets you plan your scheme on various template miniatures ranging from Games Workshop to Artel W. There is a community on Reddit creating new templates and you can take a hight quality pic of your unpainted mini and request someone make a template out of it too. The app also already has the Vallejo Game Colour and Model Colour ranges in the app but I believe you could upload Citadel or Scale75 paints as well.
    I'm in no shape or form affiliated with the developer, but it's a great tool to have. My current financial situation does not allow me to start a new army but I still play around in this app from time to time because it's just so convenient. You don't just select basecoats but also shades and highlights.
    Again I'm not a shill, it's just that good and a wonderful complement to the useful advice that has been given in this video.

    Late to the party but the method I used for my army was to save a ton of schemes I liked from searching online and Facebook and slowly deleted photos until I was down to 1. Then I would somewhat copy that theme but add my own twist / flare to it.
    My current TAU army ended up being Purple, with yellow markings and some pearlescent green, to which people started calling Evangelion. So I ran with it.
    I've also used the photoshop colour replace method but that's a bit more advanced I guess.

    If you have any of the Dawn of War games, there's an army painter which allows you to try out different color schemes. That's how I chose the colors for my Space Marine chapter. Also, there are templates online that you can find.

    The other issues I consider when working on colour schemes is how I interpret what the model is and its accoutrements. For example I am currently practising on Death Guard with Contrast and Metallic paints. I don't see the guard as having bright colours despite the shade of green used in the scheme, (And I did base my scheme on the green on the box art). Instead of treating the sharp protrusions from the body as bone, I decided it was more like horn, like in deer etc. Then I went further and based black, overlaid with brown and tipped with scarlet. It looks dark but works. Tentacles are purple like octopus. Accessories like the brass bells also have that verdigris on them post shading in the old GW Flesh Wash and rimming with the original colour. All dark, dark, dark. Now my force is looking traditional Plague Marine with a twist. And we all know they're twisted. It is about how you see there detail in addition to the main palette.
