I also agree with the white hand comment. Looks a bit out of place.
I also think the blue could do with some shading or maby even a bit of lineing between the gold and the blue. Although its neatly painted it still looks a little untidy, if you get me. A bit of lining should tidy it up.
Still good stuff.

Maybe i should paint the tips of the hand blue...or entirely...dunno yet, its just a model i like, im a IG painter normally.
I think i use too much paint....
what do you mean with lineing?

I mean where two different colours meet its sometimes good to put a very thin line of a darker colour to help separate them. I don't know why but it makes the transition easier. But adding a bit of shadow will have the same effect and will probably look more natural.

That's what I couldn't work out. It was the blue-gold lining.
Similar with the blue-white. It looks a bit harsh, and lining speads that out a bit.
All in all, a good figure.
The blended gold on the front panels works well.
With the autocannon on my dread, I've painted the gun metal-colour like yours, but the frame beneath it black.
Mine's far less detailed though, so it might not work as well as yours has.
Oh, and I've voted, as it's in the gallery Get voting.

hwo... the gold is really good looking! a wonderful dread... as said above from others, the hand looks odd... it isn´t really the color... white does work in this combination... it is because the white is too think aplied... all the other colors of yours on the dread look much more thinner...
