WOW. This is one of the best looking custodes armies Ive seen. As a fellow hobbyist that used the release of the GK codex to start a custodes army I gotta give mad props for splurging on the scibor minis. I just might have to steal ur gold color scheme for my custodes vehicles.

Tali'Zorah: It's good to be back on the Normandy.
Commander Shepard: Let me know if it's too quiet for you to sleep, and I'll find you someplace louder.
Tali'Zorah: Hmm.
Garrus Vakarian: Uh, I was there when you two had your thing, remember? Just get a room and work it out. |

Sir, that is absolutely stunning.
I'm not an impressive painter so I can't really offer much advice other than "keep up the good work!"
As I said though, that's a beautiful force; the models are excellent and the gold is painted excellently, even the vehicles come out really well which should really have been difficult considering the palette. I love that FW Land Raider too. Heck, the models are so beautiful you barely notice the great bases.
Absolutely beautiful army man; great job.

Very nice, though the asymettrical and wonky Autocannons need to be sorted as the distract a lot from the awesome paint jobs on the Dreads.

Absolutely stunning troops and walkers. The vehicles are on par, up until the weathering. The sandy, dried clay mud look just doesn't jive, visually, no matter how well executed the application. Chalk it up to personal taste, I guess. Barring that, there isn't a single thing I wouldn't sell a body part to own, let alone be able to reproduce.

Great looking Army, only issue I see is that some models have their helmets removed. Pretty sure thats a no no for the Custodes.

These models are incredible! Also additional +1 as I'd like to model a few Custodes myself. So you're looking at about 10.5-11/10. Great job, sir. Please keep up the good work.

Awesome work, the only thing I can think of to criticize is the land raider, the tracks somehow look weird and rubbery.
But other than that simply stunning work.

Really good work on the gold - it's a difficult colour to get right in large quantities.
A few things that irk me though:
- The dreadnought with the two different styles of autocannon arms looks silly IMO, and I think it would benefit the model if it was the same style on both arms.
- The tracks on all the tanks look really flat, they need some depth, especially the land raider.
Other than that the painting and converting is top notch, well done.

Beautiful paintjobs all around, there are very few things that do not simply astound me about your models, and it all revolves around that land raider.
Is the land raider brighter than the other vehicles? Because it seems like its a shade or two brigther, and because of that the mud on the treads seems to bleed into the color on the tank.
And this might just be a personal thing, but those treads on the land raider just don't do it for me. :-/

Wonderful army there, olekkkkk (did you really need that many k's?) Not many can pull off such a shiny army, without losing a lot of depth, but you definitly have
A few things.
-Something needs to be done about those Landraider threads, as said before, they look flat
-I feel that the dreadnought would pop more if the lenses on the chest were a green, tieing it in with the gemming on the shields of the custodes infantry (small change)
-and...for the love of OCD, arrange your rhinos in numerical order when you snap a pic !
