Hey everyone. Ive not really done much on here and im new to WH40k stuff, but i'd like to show you my latest work. I know im nothing special compared to a lot of great artists on here, but I would like some feedback, hints and tips of where im going wrong or if im doing something right. please do speak up. i will learn from it all.

Thanks.

Nice work! got some good highlighting there but personally I'd like to see some lowlights too to really add depth, either a wash or just some extra layers...whatever floats your boat.
good model though!

oh and it'd look much better if it was a dark angel rather than a space pup

I really like the shoulder trim some nice detailing on it. As brotherOmas said some washes could add some shadow and contrast maybe a watered down black wash on the armour and flesh wash to the face.

Do some drybrushing in a khaki or light brown color on the base. It'll really help the grit. Try painting the eyes in too. It looks like you've done some pretty fine highlighting on the edges of the armor, and some shading in the recesses. nice work!

OK, Thanks I'll try some watered down washes on my next one.
Thanks for the input.

BrotherOmas, you're wrong space wolves are the coolest and best Praise Russ the All Father.

Will try drybrushing the base next time too. Didn't think of that, thanks
I need to get some finer brushes for the eyes and a magnifying glass too I think.
