Any painting tips are more than welcome. And I still have Grimaldus and his boys to paint

looks great.

thanks

He sure looks lonely. A little hard to comment based on the photography, but he looks fairly good. A bit of a shame he is a bit crooked on his base. Is that just how the model is made?

Ya his model is leaning forward as though he is charging into battle. But I'm sure if somebody wanted to move him they could pose him diferently.

The flash totally washes out any paint job. My advice is to not use the flash, but use multiple light sources around the model to take the pic. Or go outside.

Ya I completely forgot about the flash being on, even though I saw the light on and saw the flash. But thank you for the photo tips, I'm sure that they will come in handy the next time I am taking pictures.

It's hard to comment on the paint job when it's difficult to see it through the brightness. It looks like it might be good, but you do need some better photos to really tell.

I'd go grab some posterboard and pushpins at target, pushpin then glue precut sections of said posterboard into place, and make a lightbox. i'm working on one now because apparently my photographt, like yours, is looking washed out despite my knowledge of the field and use of secondary light sources.

Sounds like a good plan. I'll definately make a picture station and then I'll post some new pics. And maybe I'll throw in some other BT models to give him some company. Thank you for the idea lord marcus.

Looks great.

The piece is so shiny... I can't see it very well.

I'll post some new pics tonight, along with some neophytes and my chaplain w/ jump pack.
