Right guys and gals, ive been toying with the nihilakh dynasty style for a dwarf army i want to paint but not sure if it works or not c&c needed please.

It looks very "Thor" to me but that could be the hammer skewing my perception. The paint scheme works, I'd look to add a darker color somewhere in there and you should be good to go.

Well i am currently painting THwORf lol.

What dark xolour would you recommend? Im pretty knew ro all this painting malarkey lol.

Not sure on that model. Maybe just another dark wash on the metal bits. Its not like he has pouches or leather straps to help out.

I agree with darefsky. Another application of dark wash (devlan mud or null oil) on the metal parts could help him define better.
Also thin your paints more it will help a great deal with highlighting.

I thin my paints right down. They are to a skimmed milk consistency. The pics do make it look a little more rough then it is. Ill try and get some clearer images.
