yeah... don't make them sparkle  Dark brooding colours with red highlights and dark washes are pretty traditional... in the army book there are a number of different schemes you could go with.... I always suggest themes when painting an army because it keeps your interest up while going through the monotonous 100+ core that you end up having to paint, and gives a nice overall feel to the army (and usually better painting scores!) A quick Google search on colour wheel will give you a quick and easy way to get complementary colours for your army that will work together no matter what you choose... ....or you could do them all as clowns... nothing freakier than clowns with big sharp teeth...  |

I was looking for the pics from the "carnival of the dead" army I saw once... extremely creepy... less "clowns" and more "ragged clowns with dripping greasepaint makeup and gore"
vamps were ringmaster types, etc. etc....
very cool army... I'll try to find it....
