Hey guys, i\'m an avid fan of Slaanesh and am in the process of starting a Slaaneshi Chaos Space Marine Force. Problem i have is i want to use pink (ala the new Emperor\'s Children scheme or the Flawless Host) but i think that Tentacle Pink is a bit bright and garish. Anyone know what other GW paint or ink i could mix into the TP to get it a bit duller?

I\'ve mixed TP with Warlock Purple to bring the color down a notch. Then I realized I have too many figures to paint, so I switched to pure Warlock Purple. Still looks good 
Hey Ninja, thanks for the response. I know the feeling, i\'ve got a Lord, Sorceror and a full unit of Chaos Marines, plus a few more models i\'m getting next week, so by the time i\'ve finished i\'ll probably be going crosseyed!!! I\'ll give the WP a shot, see what i can come up with. My partner suggested using a red, but i\'m not too sure if that\'ll turn it orangy?

If you use a pure red it shouldn\'t change it to orangey; you\'d only get orange shift if there were yellow in the mix. You can always take a red and mix in white to get your own custom pink as well instead of dulling down the Tentacle Pink.

Grey is always worth trying to dull down anything.
The grey should ideally be the same value as the colour you\'re mixing it into.
This works really well for some colours, not others, so a bit of experimentation is required (yellows and yellowish colours tend to go greenish, so you generally have to compensate with a bit of added orange or red, or try a different method).
