ok, first major thing is that your paint is way too thick, use several thin coats instead of one thick one. try adding a drop of water for every four drops of paint, and i suggest you get a palette if you aren't using one already.

also you may want to clean up the eyes, your green is spilling over onto the helmet.

other than that your models look great, i love the colour scheme

Try touching them upp and adding more deatails, in adition to other tips. Metal needs to be darker. Hugs for the hugs god! Snugle for the snugle throne!

This. And why is the sad man in picture four not holding his Meltagun?

I like the way your colour scheme's going, if you just touch up the eyes practise a bit you'll make a really great looking host.

One thing I noticed though is that the Khorne symbol left on the helmet for the meltagun *dark apostle sentences him to eternal damnation for heresy*

When you have developed a little more you could try bying a fantasy warriors of caos box to get helmets, shields, furcoats, wepons. There grate for kitbashing CSM. Acording the paintjob, try thinking: I can do better until it gets good. I think you dont realy have to ask to findout that the red isnt covering enough

*Smack* i put 2 on my commander... is it fixed if i put the 4 gods symbols on him instead of undivided?

It is possible, but that would dwell into Black Legion territory I think... Word Bearers worship the dark pantheon

Ok ill try not to mess up next time. Thank you for the help!
