Started a terminator squad, and first up was the Sergeant. had to experiment a bit, for those of you who have seen my previous imperial fist post I'm doing 5th company.

Aye or nay?

Very nice but I see a couple of mould lines that ruin it a bit.

Looks good. You could also do a darker yellow and highlight in your main color if you wanted, just depends on how bright you want it.

Also, the entire top of the hammer has a mold line, which detracts significantly. I'd make sure to clean those up on future models.

Looks great. Love the shoulder pad work.

Looks fine. The back of the terminator's shield seems a little too bright for where it is. Dark yellow wash on that maybe? Mould lines like everyone else says. I'd suggest adding a blue/red colour to the wires connecting the hammer to the terminator as it really helps bring out more colour in a mini.

My 2 cents.

Thanks guys for the comments, much appreciated. I fixed a few things. The shield I repainted and washed so it's darker and fits better with the model. I removed the mold lines on the hammer, I was completely unaware of mold lines on the top of the hammer. Oops. I removed those and repainted/washed. I fixed his helmet, the Bottom part is suppose to be silver not yellow, so I repainted that. The little optical scopes or whatever on his head i repainted the rings silver around the little opticals. Did some extra highlights. As far as the wires, I like them black. I wanted my models to have a worn / grungy look. I have a certain appreciation for that "cartoonie" or "mystical" look to models, but it's not my style. I want my models to look realistic, not the other way around.

Here are some quick photos of the new work Ive done. Thanks again.
