Default Painting White Scars

I'm about to start painting up my white scars army and I wanted to do something different, just plain white is boring to me. I usually dont follow th book to much when painting my armies to just make them stand out a bit (like painting my blood angels army with an inverted paint scheme). Any ideas what I could do for the white scars? Dont want to use red with black trim, I think they would look too much like blood angels.

I think white with Space Wolves grey would look good (Space Wolves grey is actually a light light blue colour), it would give them a snow camo look as well. Otherwise white and grey usually work well together.

I like the idea of snow camo. go with a white base, then add some light gray and black in. that would look good.

There aren't any, nobody really does Camo on Marines cause it's not fluffy.

If you don't like the White Scars color scheme why don't you do a successor or another Chapter? ??? They're not really White Scars if they have a different uniform, the uniform defines the Chapter and is what is visually different from the others.
