You know, your captain with the TH/SS looks like he laid eyes on something terrible.

Nice work

Love the libby, dreadnaught could use something to spruce up its multi-melta, but overall they're pretty good

THANKS! and ill get that multi melta, and how would i make them look better over all? any ideas? cheers!

Is it in a shower?

I think they look great, a couple of the bases are a little large for my taste but that’s me. I agree about the captain, the facial expression is spot on…. Keep up the good work.

Maybe you could paint the barrels black or drill them if you had the time. The DMM looks kinda weird without it IMO. Still a great army though

HAHA thank you! im guessing you like the grittiness of it? im working on a terminator now with more weathering than normal, hopefully you will like

I really love his in your face "No no sir, feth you" expression

Nice looking models you got there, the expression on that lysander

haha thanks mate!

I declare this: awesome.

very nice. I like the use of those grey knights (I think) termie heads. Nice work on the chaplains too.

I really like the land raider.

I'm also a fan of your basing scheme, I do think you should re-edge them in black or brown, will really clean up the look.


Great work.

thank you!!! also i am working on the landraider again i hope like it when im done and yes you are correct the bases do lack, ill give it a try cheers!

I love what you do with your weathering, I also love your colour scheme, the Templar Stormshield are a nice Nod to the progeny of the Imperial Fists.

Now, for a little criticism (please don't get upset) i love you paint scheme, but I can often see mould lines. Which is disappointing because you are a good painter, but the lines just seem to pop, especially on certain models or flat armour surfaces also drilling out the bolter barrels and weapons . Please don't be upset, I mean this as positive criticism, because if you got these nailed it would be A+ not A- in my eyes.

Ending on a positive note, nice to see that you are a Salavager like me, buying old or badly done miniatures and resurrecting them.

HAHA! cheers mate and no worries i love criticism! so please dont be afriad to tell me anything, i a new painter so i know i have lot to learn. One step i do always forget is those damn mold lines xD BUT as for the barrels i just got my drill and have slowly started drilling them haha the chaplain has them drilled out

An A-!!!!! REALLY? DO YOU REALLY LIKE THEM THAT MUCH?! thank you very much!!!!! and ill work on making the mold lines disappear, and any more things you can think of please tell me i only started around september! so i still have tons to learn! cheers!!

Wow, your painting skills are lengendary!

Yup, its the way you paint is quite interesting. It's like impressionism, you get a really good effect without painting every detail in. I also love the weathering, I like my Marines to look like they've been earning their kills, with heavily pock marked, dented and dirty armour. Parade Ground Troops look smart, Infantry on the field will be dirty or else they aren't fighting hard enough.

Yes I really like your painting, the airbrushing of the base colour over the White primer gives a really nice look to the whole force.

I love the weathering on the vehicles, but you need to do the same on the foot-troops in order to tie them together, not a lot but enough that it adds depth and ties them alll together.

a warm feeling in my pants..and its not shepperds pie......
