I still need to put in some more detail. Such engine HB amo... if you see where i can improve these 2 models please say

sorry for the glare on the third photo

looks nice, the white parts realy stand out.

thanks

Is your model dusty? I suffer from that on my Ultramarines and find it very distracting because it causes two-tones on your solid black areas. Perhaps weather it a bit or add some battle damage if you are looking for a way to add some extra visual impact. Other than that looks like a solid clasic colour scheme on a model that doesn't generally have crazy designs, so good job.

Also, sometimes I find a gloss coat really neat looking on dark coloured land speeders. Might punch it up.

no thats my camera mixed with glare from the sun.

Looks pretty good. Some humble advice, wash your metal areas (the M Melta). It looks pretty one dimensional. A good recipe for metal is;

Your normal metal color (Boltgun, Vallejo gunmetal gray, whatever)
Citadel Black wash
Drybrush a 'brighter' metal (Chainmail, whatever)


Or the brass sections;

Brazen brass
Citadel Black wash
Drybrush Brazen brass/chainmail mix

Cheers

looks sharp.. I think Strimen meant that with gloss on the black, your paint job will play with the light a little more.. making a clean but flat paint scheme more active. It will resist dust a lot better also.

flat

gloss (NICE!)

i see what you mean and i like your example lol

Hmm. Yes, a gloss on the black would be nice -- but be sure to give it some h/c battle damage afterwards. Scratches, dings, directional shrapnel hits...

*Drools.*

And also, nice level of industriousness.

so i should use a paint like tin bits right

Hmm. Judging by the high-gloss finish you could go for, I'd say more long, sharp streaks of chainmail, building up to Mithril in some places. And then pockmarks of Tin Bitz, then Boltgun dotted, then Chainmail.

I find these help with the sort of moving-vehicle-shrapnel damage.
