Blood Angels Librarian Dread

So... Should I paint him red, or stick with the traditional blue?

Opinions?

That's an excellent question... I say silver and gold and use him as a GK dread in the new codex:D!

Seriously, though, I think blue with some red would be appropriate. As I recall, Librarians still have some chapter markings, even if most of their armor is blue. Same thing here, I think.

Yeah... I'm so torn..

With a Libby in armour, I can stomach the other color, because it's smaller. But a dread will be a GIANT blue block in my booootiful red army!

Decisions decisions.

u could do the main section in red but give it a blue psychic hood and/or fist, something along those lines might work, or u could try one of the visual psychic conversions like a flaming dred fist or lightning and just paint the dred red, so its clear hes a libby dred since hes got lightning flying from his fist :D

Red with a blue pad.

I did black with a blue pad on my Iron Hands. http://derina-ironhandsandmorethings.blogspot.com/2010/05/iron-hands-libby.html

Just paint him red. That way, you can switch out the arms on him in case you need to change to a normal furioso.

Brilliant. This is what I"m doing.

Personally, having used the Venerable Dread kit, I painted the vehicle body red, but then painted any part of his exposed power armour blue. I was a bit concerned it'd look a bit silly at first, but I'm actually quite pleased with how it turned out. :)
