Thaks to Kool I've been inspired to create a new team. However I still want to keep the traditional purple of my old guard. But what colours go best with this? What do you think. I need advice on armour, chainmail, leather etc.

Gold always goes well with purple, or go with a deep yellow.

Gold as armour or chainmail or both?

Purple, black and gold go very well together.

My dark elves are primarily black, with purple gloves and trim and silver as a third color for trim.

I am doing mine in black/dark red , with a brassy finish on the mail and helmets... and of course the burnished bone!

Gold and purple, that's what I have on my Undead...

What colour purple do you use? I have always used the Liche purple but I think this is too dark.

Black, Silver and Liche Purple, with the odd deatil in gold. The Liche purlple isn't so dark, especially when you mix in a little white for the highlights

I used GW's Liche Purple and Partha's Blood Red as the primary colours when I painted my team back in '95.

Supporting colours are GW's Golden Yellow, Deadly Nightshade, Ruby Red and Boltgun Metal.
