I suggest FO or SY.  Sorry can't provide a visual look.  For my RGB the orange flash on CG looks more yellow.  SRD would be more subtle but a nice choice.  Smiley

I greatly prefer silver with the "cool colors" - blue, green, purple, etc.  It gives a nice contrast to the blade color.  I've always thought that yellow would work well too, for green specifically, but without any experience on that I'll stick to my recommendation of silver.

I'd go for silver too - a nice clean contrast with the blues and greens .

I don't have a visual representation, but I got my Archon in CG with AB FoC.  I wanted something other than the generic silver flash, and personally love the combination.

I felt a great disturbance in the force as if millions of nerds cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

I've seen a similar setup on another saber I once had, and it was pretty neat as I recall.  Good recommendation.

Or I guess if you wanted a real contrast clash then go for the opposite colour - so how about a BR flash with a green blade? I have a Guardian with a red AV switch and a green blade and that looks pretty cool so it could look good as a FoC as well Smiley

I agree.  Using a contrasting color is more " dramatic".  I'm not a big fan of AS.  It's ok, it's just not a "wow" type of moment, for me.  I like color.  AS is like having someone shine a flashlight in the middle of your light show.  It has its place in saber color yet, not a first choice for me.  Everyone's different, obviously, and I respect that.  It comes down to...what do YOU want in the combination?  MTFBWYA!

I have an orange flash on my green blade, and that works well for me.

I find that Orange works pretty good also blue which I'm currently using for my Emerald saber which is currently a flickering Green with a blue FoC

I agree.  AS = white = non-color to me.   When I got my Dominix in SRD recently I only had two color choices on the FoC chart, AS and AB.  I chose Arctic blue knowing it wouldn't contrast as much, but I just wanted something other than white.   It didn't disappoint.   There's certainly contrast enough and it looks fantastic.

You mentioned in another post you were getting that color combo (SRD w/ AB FoC) as well.  I'm pretty sure you'll be very pleased with it as I am.

Yes, I pretty jazzed!  I've seen the combination on YouTube and it was an attractive pairing.  ENJOY! Smiley
