Heres my first banshee ive painted i think its not a bad model feel free to comment and leave feed back ive still got to finish the base.

not bad at all!
If i may, the layer of paint seems quite thick, try maybe to thin down just a little bit the paints.
Otherwise, the technique is great!

yeah the blue layers ddnt go as well as i hoped i cnt never get the right thickness for my paints its eaither to thick or to thin

Try just to dip a clean dry brush in water and get the paint on that brush, mix this two together.
That's about a right proportion.
Another option is to use an old paint pot and try with bigger amounts of paint and water. This way you get to have a more important amount of paint and get to reuse it in the future, plus you'll get to right proportions easier on larger amounts
Also, try to thin with windex, or window cleaner in general (in particular if you decide to make your own pot). Thins better and dries better.

Ill give it ago thanks

Imagine that your mix of paint and water should be of the same texture as that of milk, you should see some small bubbles forming then it should be about right! And yeah, nice job for a first model!

have it so texture as that of milk ok thanks i always thought that was to thin thats where ive been goin wrong

Really like that color scheme. Will look cohesive with blue dire Avengers yet different enough too. I've been thinking of going yellow with my banshees but might just steal your scheme

Thanks jedi ive also got some striking scorpions and firedargons in my fell free to have a look

I love the color scheme, you went away from the pack and that's refreshing

Thanks soul i hate seeing everyones eldar looking as if they got members of evy metal team to paint them the same old colours .

I think you've done a really good job on a model that I personally found very fiddly to paint - well done

Thanks darkapostle and yeah i also found the eldar models very fiddly aswell but all in all i dnt think it came out to bad my self a few things im not happy but still a not a bad out come for one of my first models .

very nice. im just imagining jain zar-or is it zain jar? i can never quite tell... in that colour scheme. oh god now im getting hyped up about Fuegan in that...

Thanks i did start painting Jain Zar in this scheme but stoped for some reason ive still got half of my eldar army to do i hope to get it all done one day.
