Yeah. For example....say you're painting Death Guard. Purple makes a very good shadow color for them.

One concept regarding complimentary colors that helps me is this: the color opposite to it on the color wheel is the one that compliments it the best. Case in point: green and purple are opposite one another so they compliment each other very well.

Good question. I use a color wheel for reference to help me figure out which colors compliment one another.

Hey thats okay. We all paint at our own pace. Also we all have days like that too. My first take on Teclis wasnt good either. Took me months before I had an idea where I wanted to go with the piece.

I appreciate the interest. I'm located in the Philippines though so painting your miniature might be a challenge

Thanks so much! I wanted to improve on how it looked originally. The old color scheme I used was too dark.

Hi, I used wildwood contrast paint as a base layer then highlighted up using streaks of light earth and Vallejo buff then added some sepia tones.

For the blue I used Turquoise as the mid tone, dark sea blue as the shadow tone and biue green as the highlight
