So, after realising that my mum's birthday is about 2.5 weeks away and wanting to do something a little more special/heartfelt than simply buying her something I decided to snag a combat squad of 5 marines and paint them up for her to keep at work.

I asked her what her favourite colours were, she answered blue and green. So, I want to paint them up in one of those two colours.

So, which chapters use a blue or a green as a primary/major colour? I know the obvious answers are Ultramarines and Dark Angels, but I can't afford the Dark Angels' robed models/upgrade pack right now, nor do I really want to paint the rather boring more-or-less-1-colour Smurf Marines.

The only reason that some people make fun of wargamers is because they're jealous!

After all, we get all the models. *eyebrow waggle*

I'm not at home so I can't give you the full list. What about Salamanders? They're green.
