Hey, after a week of on and off painting, Ive finally finished my Ironclad Night Lord Dreadnought. I painted the banner earlier (first banner), and I was just hoping to hear opinions on the general layout and colours used. I took the pics with my Iphone (which isnt the best), and sharpened it up a bit in photoshop (which is why you get the grain effect).







Again, sorry for the blurry pics, I tried my best.

Looks good, maybe try make the writing more gothic, I can't remember what it's called but you should try putting lines on the end of each line in the letters, if you know what I mean.

It is already obvious that it is a Nightlords dread.
The writing doesn't do it for me. It makes the banner look like an 80s heavy metal poster.
A motto in scrollwork would be more appropriate/bannerlike.
Just my two cents.
P.S Nice paint on the Dread itself.

QFT (especially the bit about the heavy metal poster)

The writing reminds me of the vampire ride in chesington over here in england but the dred is pretty sweet itself tho i must say!
