What (main) color do you usually dye your armor/costumes?

we are talking main color here, alright, not color accentuations...

i am actually curious since it seems to me that more than half of the player base has a black theme going. :*

    I always mix it up day to day. Black is totally in the mix though.

    I usually pick deeper, more vibrantly colored equivalents of the default costume's colors I'm wearing. For example, I dyed the Chancellor costume to look like Abnur Tharn's and I used Ayelid Gold to bring out the Dragon Priest's plating color a bit more.

    I'm surprised that so many costumes have "washed-out" colors by default. Dying helps alleviate that.

    It try to put as much care as possible in designing my character's outfits, trying to make them as real and fitting to the character as possible.

    Often times, that mean even grays or holds for metals, and more muted colors for cloth and leather; often earthy browns.

    It depends on the costume and on the character.

    A lot of times, I just cycle through the randomizer until I find something that looks good and then tweak it.

    Most of my characters get some variation including black. I tend to like the darker colors. Except my healer. My healer is in white and gold. Healers come from the light in my mind, so her armor/costume being black didn't make sense in my mind.

    Brightest blue from the normal maw completion, since my jester argonian mask has an uncolorable white I'm forced to have to have double bright blue with white.

    I sometimes go with blacks and other dark colors, but I mainly use browns, light browns, bronze and some gold. Lighter gold though. A friend called it a "sunburst finish". I'm not a guitar!

    It depends entirely on the character, each one having a different colour set.

    Base is always white, secondary is gold, and tertiary is a sort of blue (either Vehk's or Beryl)
    And so, Akatosh revealed himself to a young Gaben, and granted him purpose.

    Honestly it depends on what my character looks like, her class, etc.

    My main Darkra, has the mane of many colors (The green and blue one) so she usually has black and blue colored armor/costumes. (She has black hair, and fur too (Khajiit))

    Then I have my crafter, The naked Princess (Yes She is named the naked princess, I was basically dared to keep her and i have xD) Usually wears armor and costumes with red, since she has a red flower.

    My stam sorc is black and blue since she wears Dro'M-Athra armor.
    Blood red roses is black and red, since her fur is black and she has red flowers.

    I have more toons but you get the point. xD I usually use rare colors too, like Coldharbour ash black, Dro'M-athra blue, etc.
    I have been a member of ESO since April 4th 2014 but didn't get a code until recently when I asked.
    My @ name on ESO is the same as on here.

    Mostly black or all black. If I mix in some color, I'll add the Akatosh scales gold and maybe some contraband violet as accents. Those colors look great on Yokudan!

    Without going into debate, this is a source of confusion/debate in itself, but while I could start arguing you are wrong or that I am right and etc... etc...., I encourage you instead to look it up, perhaps you'll confirm you are right, or perhaps you'll see what I meant, or that I was myself, correct.
