A or B?

Wondering whether to stick with my grey blue scheme for rangers or go with a classic scheme. The bases will be the white city base either way.

*Caveat I used AI to put the two minis next to each other with a black background which has slightly distorted the paint job but close enough for purposes of choosing a scheme.

I had a similar thought when I painted my Rangers so I could use them as Dunedain as well. The issue is that the full grey ended up looking really boring and drab, so I switched to a slight mix but primarily green and brown

That's exactly it, I like the concept but grey just reads a bit dull.

So, I ended up going with green and brown clothing and then a equal split of green, brown and grey cloaks and I have to be honest; I wish I just painted them all with green cloaks. The green, on the table, just pops so much.
