Sorry dude, looks like your pics might have been lost in the warp..

are they fixed now?

Yep!

Nice freehand work and a nice model, if you wanted some constructive feedback I'd say firstly thin your paints a little more to prevent the lumpy texture and secondly you could try a wash on the face to add some shading

You've done a grand job though, I particularly like the freehand shoulder pad

i usually do use washes but i have run out

Thin the paints and you should be fine by the looks of it your a pretty good painter and awesome freehand

Why is the picture a mirror image?

for some reason the website i use does that, i usually just revers it manually but forgot this time so apologies.

The paint does look a little chunky, but I won't beat that horse anymore. The freehand, however, is amazing! Great job overall on it!

i take it you just add water to the paint to thin it?

Yeah, just enough so's it'll flow freely on the model without running too much...give it a bit of practice on some spare sprue or something to get used to the consistancy before doing a model, just in case

I like a willingness to use a metal termie as a base!

you're free hand is very good! I think a little more work with the face would really help develop the model!

thinking back i believe this was one of the first models i ever bought/my dad bought for me almost 6 years ago.

washed with badab black

Definitely needs a thinnin'!

Everything else is solid.

Though, as the camera isn't that great on giving us much detail, I'd say watch out for any ink stains; washes should never be your last stage for this reason (unless you're painting Nurgle, the cracked effect can look quite nice )

now with milliput hood
