This will be determined by what your ground color is.<br /><br />There was one of my Grey Knight units that was set on marble tile bases, which were reflected in the "earth" part of the SE-NMM, which was lots of fun!<br /><br />For the lightest color of the 'sky' section, I like to use a pale yellow/white, instead of a very cold stark white. This enhances the sky blue, and makes a nice contrast to the greyed down earth tones. For these handgunners, my earth mix has a bit of flesh color mixed with brown.<br /><br />In the past, I have used a graveyard earth color as the base for the "earth" section.<br /><br />Hopefully this info is useful!wappellioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545341272914600283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349727365634393854.post-4147994630192374242012-12-15T11:05:52.962-06:002012-12-15T11:05:52.962-06:00Awesome!
