I love the paint scheme of this old FW Trygon:

Think it looks so much better than the outrageous Hivefleet colours.

But I can't decide what colours are used?

Any experienced hobbyist here got a good shout?

To me looks like it could be Snakebite or Camo Green, but that is a lot of difference, so obviously I have no idea!

It probably isn't just a single colour. It would likely be a colour made by mixing many others, and none of them are necessarily Games Workshop colours, they could be Vallejo, army painter etc. I can't tell you which colours were used but from the looks of it they were dry brushed if that helps.

Jade green is my vote, if so it's been out of production for a few years now. I only know because my whole chaos army uses it as a base colour. I'd say jade drybrushed with a mix of goblin to tone it down.

I'd have to say graveyard Earth, it would certainly be an appropriate colour for something that pops up from the ground.

yeah I don't know how you get jade green from those pics... Graveyard earth or more than likely Desert Yellow mixed with Scorched brown... that's my guess

It says that it was painted by Mark Bedford, might be the same guy who works at Forgeworld. Why don't you email forgeworld, see if it's him and ask him what colours he used. Is worth an ask.

Just as a brief aside, you can still get Jade Green and all of the other 'OOP' Games Workshop paints and old inks from here under the Coat d'Arms paints section:
