Hi!

I have n't been on forum much recently due to heavy workload and spending time with an attractive colleague. However workload should start to ease soon and I may even have time to paint again.

Following some off list discussions with Tuff, I need to pick the brains of the list. I know the topic of colour schemes for Titan legions has been dicussed before but I wanted some specific advice.

Does anyone know of any Titan Legions that are noted as having served with either Valhallan IG Regiments or with Space Wolves Chapter? I know that Space Wolves are often loners but thought I would ask just in case.

Assuming not, what would be a good colour scheme for Titans serving on iceworld with Valhallans/Space Wolves? Would you go for a colour scheme to complement or contrast with main army? Would you go for camoflage or colour scheme that defiantly sticks out from grey white uniforms?

Cheers

Hmm. The Titan Legions usually wear their colors proud like Space Marine chapters, and it's pretty difficult to camouflage something the size of a titan anyway.

However, as I can't remember off-hand a Titan Legion having served with the Wolves I'd probably invent my own (Ice Lords or something like that) with a color scheme of Ice Blue/Grey.

How about a contrasting colour scheme and then layer its shoulders with snow?

I'm in the initial stages of building a Valhallan army at the moment- for my Titans I'm going for a 'Codex Grey' basic colour, with some red detailing, and a bit of 'snow' brushed into crevices and upper surfaces... :)

Thanks for the replies guys. I shall have to ponder.

The colour scheme of the valhallans is on Tuff's site:

I am sure Tuff won't mind more plugs of his excellent work!!

Cheers

I'd go for a shadow grey basecoat, with ghost grey over the top and stippled white camo.

Then I'd go nuts with snow flock.
