Hi all,

Here is my first Deathwing model from the Dark Vengeance box set, he is almost finished, I just need to finish the base. Hope you all like him

You coul use a sharp highlight on a number of edges, but the shading and general painting looks quite nice. I like the strong shading under the "cheeks"

Cheers mate. What do you suggest? Ushabti bone? Pure white is too sharp a contrast in my opinion

Very nice! Even if i think the battle damage is over-done.

I hardly ever do battle damage on marines but I wanted this guy to look absolutely battered. I've read quite a lot of Dark Angel back story recently and I wanted my marines to look like they have had a hard time

i think the battle damage is pretty cool although i do agree you need some sharp edge highlighting, if pure white is too harsh for you try mixing it 50/50 with bone with a bit more white added on the corners of the armour

keep up the good work

Thanks for the advice guys. I'm going to try the highlighting over the next few days. I don't want to go over board with it though
