I've gone with a Ruby/Garnet effect here - but what colour combinations would you suggest? leave a comment and lets make a handy catalogue of colour combos for other artists.
I love using really deep rich purples with some fluorescent magenta mixed in to layer up and edge highlight with the fluorescent magenta. I’ve also used it for a loyalist emperors children kill team with a deep forest green for fabric/capes highlighted with a mix of the deep forest green and some escorpina green. The armour is super smooth blends (well, as smooth as I can manage 😂) and then the fabric/capes are all thin lines/cross hatching to try get the texture of fabric. I do this style in purple magenta as the fabric/capes of my ultramarines characters/veterans. I love the contrast between the two colours and textures, really makes them pop.
@@ger5956 proacryl do an amazing magenta purple to magenta crystals would be lush, I’ve got the big double handed guy with the crystal great weapon and may steal that
I love green. Or the aurora effect of some gems. Not technically rainbow, but something similar. Difficult to achieve I would imagine. But if I could. Make some sort of inner or /base of an aurora and then a "clear" at bottom to green shiny tips. Beautiful. ... I have never painted crystals but I may try this soon using what yiu taught. Thanks lol
@@itsio7188 you can do this in reverse to create the lighter / transparent (ish) at the bottom and darken the tips to create the effect of it being brighter at the core - i was looking at Creedite for my next batch with more orange for the cool mace type club.
It’s a great way to make a mini pop and once you get that skill of pulling those colours into eachother and getting them to blend, you can apply this to so many more techniques

Would any white work?
Any white is good - pick one you’re happy with as there’s so many out there - I really like corax white but I know that it’s not for everybody
Nail art brushes off amazon are auper cheap and great for edge highlighting because, they have such thin tips
Oooooo that’s a bloody good idea!
