Well, here's a Grey Knight dreadnought that I recently converted and painted as a commission.

I don't know that there's a whole lot else to say.

**Ifalna**

Gorgeous as always.

The warm OSL glow on the legs and undercarraige is carried out especially well, you managed to keep it looking metallic while using a hot light colour.

The old stressed brassy gold looks great too, you kept it looking old without making it look dirty.

**InquisitorVaron**

I would say lovely. Would quite like an article/post on how you achieved the OSL flames a very nice touch. Keep up the Great work

**Auxellion**

That OSL.... love the "Warmth" feel to it. Love the parchment/banner with script as well!

Great work man!

**devilution**

Poor little demon :(

The reflection effect is soooooo well done ! I really love the paintjob on your model

**Coolyo294**

Let me show you my demon spine!

**sinistermind**

awesome job on the pose/paint/base all around excellent quality!!!

**MechaEmperor7000**

It's almost a parody of Skulltaker! Well done sir!

**Movac**

I definitely need to buy some new dreads for my GK army instead of using proxies.

**Jordankeeps**

Wow the dread looks great, The base is amazing!

**spireland**

That base is nuts. GJ

Well, I did do a write up on Object Source Lighting. I have often meant to go back and write up a second on painting OSL combined with natural lighting (like I did for this mini) but most of the principles are the same.

**Pennywise**

That's really well done, the base is sweet.

**Gavo**

Amazing OSL on the legs. Did you sculpt the spine out of GS?

**Theofilos**

Needless to say really amazing!

**odinsgrandson**

Thanks.

I sculpted the spine from green stuff. The base was constructed of grey stuff (on top of a normal base).
