Stormhost Silver Colour Schemes & Combinations
Stormhost Silver paint from Citadel Colour can be used in combination with several different colors to create a variety of effects. Here are three colors that I would recommend using with Stormhost Silver:
- Altdorf Guard Blue: a deep blue color that complements the brightness of Stormhost Silver.
- White Scar: a bright white color that can be used to add highlights and contrast to the overall color scheme.
- Gehenna’s Gold: a rich gold color that provides a striking contrast to the silver metallic color.
I made this decision based on color theory, as blue and silver are analogous colors, they complement each other, creating a cohesive look, white is a neutral color that can be used to create highlights and shadows, and gold is a warm color that can be used to create a sense of richness and luxury. These colors together create a nice balance, and the metallic finish of Stormhost Silver will make the miniatures look even more striking.
