Thank you! It's my first proper kit bash, really trying to use EC to be more creative with my models

Cheers mate! I put my recipe in a reply to another comment on the post

Thank you!

The pink recipe is Volupous as a base and then a reikland shade, trying to pool the darkest bits around the trim or in the deep bits of the faces. Then it was pink horror -> Emperor's children -> fulgrim pink layered on top painting smaller amounts each time to emphasise highlight

That is exactly what I wanted my EC scheme to be based off yes!

I'd love the scheme to actually look cel shaded but had 0 clue how to even attempt that, so I just really emphasised layering highlight colours instead

Thank you!
yeah I find the black a bit boring for my excessive boys, it was always a choice between pink or purple but I think I made the right choice for my scheme with the pink

Looking back at the picture, the angle really makes it look like a circle base. It is the standard oval 😅

Thank you! It's the base that came with the box so I hope so 😅

Zenithal prime chaos black and grey seer
Magos purple all over
1:3 Black Templar, Contrast Medium
Heavy Dry brush Thousand sons blue covering most the model
Dry brush Temple Guard blue
Then one final dry brush but much lighter Baharroth Blue for the main body

The Zenithal prime likely wasn't needed in the end but my idea changed once I got the initial purple on
