Hey guys, I’m taking a break from painting Windriders and painted some more Nighthaunt models, working on refining my paint scheme. The two models on the left were the first two models I painted, while I made some changes for the three models on the right. I used an airbrush for the fade on the robes, which helps to create a smoother blend, and changed the base rim colour from Charadon Granite to Steel Legion Drab. Which batch do you prefer and why?

I prefer the Steel Legion Drab. The contrast between the base and ground work plays well with the browns and greens in the grave weapons.
While you are at it, you could also try darker brown (Dryad Bark?) or more reddish brown (Mournfang Brown?) for base trim. I agree with the previous poster that there should be some contrast between the base and the trim but I don't think that Steel Legion Drab is the right shade of brown in this case.
