Finally finished a decent sized army. Comments and suggestions please.

Hmmm, it's a bit lacking in picture department. Could use a bit more picture.

Technical difficulty... meaning i didn't know what i was doing. pictures added now.

Independent characters.

Land raider redeemer, Ironclast upgrade.

Tactical squad, the beginning.

first attempt at making combi weapons.

Army picture.

The biggest issue I'm seeing with your Deathwing terminators is blotchiness when it comes to the armor. It's really obvious with the curved and flat armor panels where there's lots of blank space. It looks like you don't have enough coats of your base color over the primer layer or perhaps just did a drybrush over the model before moving onto details.

Use very thin layers of your bone color and slowly coat those flat surfaces and repeat until your color has smoothed out.

Thanks for the tip. I always dread painting vehicles because there is just so much area to cover.

For Deathwing vehicles, I'd suggest using Army Painter's Skeleton Bone and use that as your base. Use a sepia wash, drybrush Ushabti Bone (or equivalent) back over it. Highlight Screaming Skull then a touch of Skull White and voila. You have your armor done.

Then go over your details with a dark grey or black as a new baseline for darker colors (or stick with the bone primer for lighter colors) and then pick out your guns, your viewslits...

I would suggest priming the tracks separate from the rest, so you can still primer them black.

I just have a question about the Chapterhouse conversion kit for the Land Raider: How did you like it? Was it well fitting and all that? I really like and am thinking about getting one.

After a little work, it fit perfectly. Having it sit in boiling water for a while got the minor warping out. It did however have a major crack in the right gun mount from mis-casting that I could not work out. I hope to eventually make it into battle damage.

All in all I really like it. Well worth the trouble. I will definitely get another.

With armys like SM and IG, where there is a lot of one colour, army painter will save your ass. Also I like the landraider. Simple paintjob but very effective.

I know, I love army painter. All my models minus the tech marine were based with it.

Finally started high lighting.Here is my newly finished tech marine that eventually will have a bike(using it as cover).
