Hello, my name is Matthew and I'm about 3 months into warhammer 40k and painting models.
I'm taking commissions at my local hobby shop, and I have been painting this hell drake for a client.
He specifically requested a galaxy like paint job with a tzeench theme (or however you spell it :p).
I wanted to see if you guys could see the galaxy effects, and what you think.
Now it's a WIP.
He also requested that I used metallic paints on the trims, which is fine but I normally use the NMM technique.
Does anyone have any good tips on how to paint with the metallic paints? (I call them glitter paints).
Thanks!
Also I apologize for the bad pic quality, I'm working on that problem.
And I'm using the P3 rhunic gold and bronze(not sure if that helps, I just know you have to do different things with certain paints)

I'd like to see that when it's finished, because the space background looks cool

Looking great! Just a heads up, a mod will probably move this to the regular Painting and Modeling forum. This one is supposed to be exclusively for 100% completed models.

Looking great though. Once all that trim gets filled in, it will really tie it together.

I agree with you though, I think NMM would look better in this instance.

Yeah, but I'm kinda glad I didn't do all that trim in NMM.
I would be painting the same model for the entire millennial reign!
Lol.
Thanks guys for the complements.
Hope you enjoyed it.
So what thread is like works in progress that you want people to comment on?

This one Yeo. And welcome to Dakkadakka http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/forums/show/8.page

It's easy to assume that people arguing an interpretation you disagree with are just looking for an advantage for themselves... But it's quite often not the case.
