>a) A good source of matt spray yellow (and any color for that metter) is

>b) Quick Orks:- spray black, drybrush white, Color (instant highlight,
>detail to your own taste. This works well for red and yellow marines but
>drybrush white twice.
>
>c) Imperial Fists:- I seem to remember bone being the original color of
>the Fist armour. Spray Black, Bone drybrush, Yellow wash, red details.
