Here are some blood angels i painted, any suggestions on improving them? thanks

Hey. Looks like a good start. I'm no expert, but try maybe to get some real fine edge highlights at the top edges of the armor. I use blood red/mixed with orange (some people don't like the orange colors on BA's). So you could experiment with blood red and some other lighter color. Like maybe red with a slight mix of dwarf flesh or something lighter. (sorry i'm still using older color names.)
And maybe a wash over the gold crests. Like a sepia wash might work.

You seemed to paint everything real neat which is great. Whatever color you use, try to add some highlights, it will really take your models to the next level.

tamiya colors are what i use (not that easy to get my hands on citadel colors in my country)

Do you use enamels or acrylics?

Acrylic. They seem to be much thinner than citadel colours (as i seen them in some movies on youtube)

and theres a newer one
