Here's some pics of my first finished Deff Kopta Let me know what you think. I haven't painted in years just got back into 40k. Stopped playing around 15 years ago and now Im getting back into it. I also finished some boyz as well Ill have to post them later when I get a photo taken.

Holy crap! Very cool! Love me some Deathskullz!

Throw a few washes on it to dirty it up. Devlan Mud is great for this. Also, try to nick and ding it up a bit. Easiest way to do that is to just use a fine brush and make fast strokes on some areas. Otherwise, it is good. Checkers are such a pain, but yours are good and plentiful.

veery cool

Excellent work with some great attention to the details! The blue and white checkering is very well done, and the individual parts of the model stand out from the rest (cables, bolts, etc).

I do agree with MNOP, I think this model needs some weathering due to orkiness--but that's easier said than done on such a well painted model with different surfaces. I do not think a simple wash will suffice.

I like the discoloration on the exhaust vent for the front weapons--you could try creating a similar effect on the bolts of the circular plate which holds the rotors in place (at the top of the model).

Then I'd definitely add some heavy metallic drybrushing (on a non-checkered area for test first, of course!) on those rotor blades. I'd suggest a medium silver color so that it will stand out against the bright white and deep blue.

Keep up the great work and post more pics!

Looks Great! Only 5 more to go right

Love it!

I think you should dirty up the blue a bit for Orkiness.

I like it very good job

Nice work. I really like the "face". The only thing I would do is cover the whole model in Devlan Mud to get it dirtier.

Looks great!

I never realized the black reach deffkoptas had swastika rotors!

wow nice job mate, bonza paint job!

nice paint job
