Cool paintjob, but I think the model could do with a few more skulls . . .

Thank for the praise, but the gun barrels did not need to be drilled ... they already were ... as mentioned before this is a great finecast model!

I was not being serious. The model shows 24 skulls in the picture and I think there are a few more on the back!

Looking great, I like the base you've given him too.

Just a small one ... on the banner trophy is a spiked space marine helmet which looked as if a small part was missing. I did not consider it a problem as the helmet should look battered anyway.
If you're talking about the bottom of the helmet ridge, that bit is also missing on my lead model from back in the day, so it's clearly meant to be like that

Ahh, ok. Then I truly have a perfect finecast model. Thanks for the information!

It looks very dated now, it's over 15 years old yet GW are still hawking it around. The mighty leader of chaos forces, a midget compared to most marines in terminator armour.
The painting by the OP is good, I should finish mine, but he looks like a wimp.
