Looks damn good. Interesting choice to combine bronze and blue, but I think it works really well. The bronze looks a little light, (More like brass to my eye) but it still looks good.

Thanks Jim, I was trying to go for a steampunk effect and i think the bottom layer started as bronze but ended becoming more brass like.

It looks pretty fantastic, actually.
The blue is top notch.
I guess the only suggestion I have would be to pick out the chaos icons on the front with something to make them pop more.

Thanks everyone. As I am still pretty new to painting this has been both rewarding and very encouraging.
Holydeath, I was tempted to try and pick out the chaos signs on the leg with a little bit of dark red (same shade as on the other chaos logos) when my hand feels a little steadier. I swear I am always finding something to add to it lol. Thanks for the crit though, always happy to learn and improve ^^

Looks good bud. Sharp glowing eyes would really come out nicely against that blue.
I want a soul grinder but no one locally wants to trade their credit for something painted of mine.

I love it! Truly one of the best colour combinations for a soul grinder I have seen, very nice highlighting for a new painter. The bronze has great shading too. Well done!

Wow thanks again guys, I can't count how many hours I spent on it. I'm really pleased how the bronze turned out and I have to thank the guys at gw for teaching me how to dry brush, that was another first on this model
Aosol I did paint the eyes yellow, although they may need a second layer to make them a little brighter. I shall add it to my 'to do list' ^^
