Pretty good what did you use for the flame? And did you dry-brush for the effect?

It was off the flagelent sprue and it was mostly drybrushed

I think the OSL looks very good, but the actual flame bit isn't really convincing.

Looks good so far dont forget the top of the left power pack/backpack exhaust and some of the leading edges behind the head i think they should get some of the light too.

Thanks for the comments guys,
@cassar; the photo gives a bit of an optical illusion, the shoulder pad actually blocks the vent from the light source
@Divine Comedy; For the lighting I started with a mix of Macharius Solar Orange and Iyanden Darksun, then blended up through Golden yellow, Sunburst yellow, and finally Skull white.

Wonderful job. I think you pulled off the OSL wonderfully.

How do people do OSL? I could never figure it out

You just drybrush the area in line of sight of the light source, and graduate the tone lighter as you travel closer to the focal point. It's a lot easier than it looks, try it out on a old model and muck about a bit, you'll get the feel for it.
Just have a go, the worst thing tat could happen is you've got to repaint a model you never use anyway.
