Here we go. Everything done except the force weapons and the base. Not sure where to go with the base.

**virx67**

Throw on some magenta for the eyes, maybe blend yellow/orange for the power weapon, and just do some grey for the bolter. You could also try out some light blue on the shoulderpads if you really wanted to make them pop. Then I'd probably do a grey base.

**Eclipseone**

Hmm. Blue where on the shoulder pads? Also was thinking grey for the bolter but think I should incorporate it somewhere else on the model too. Still not sure on te eyes.

**DijnsK**

i think silver and red would do great on that miniature!! the red is a nice warm complimentary color that will give it some warmth and the silver for the letters to make them stand out (but gold also works great with purple)

and i would do a very light (ice blue) blue for the eyes

Just realized I goofed his knee with brown! Good thing its at a high angle and will be nearly invisible once that ink goes on

Looking for osl color eye suggestions and power weapons!

Agrax then nuln oil wash really makes the words in gold pop. Looks great, still want to test the oil wash on some test gold to decide what route to go.

**Rotgut**

I didn't think I was going to like that purple but it ended up looking really awesome with the gold.

Maybe green for the eyes? Or a bright red? It's hard to say what would flow with it until its on there.

**Eclipseone**

Thanks for the comment brother! I was worried too. Still all looks funky cause its in progress but I think the washes will really bring it together - it really drops the gold down some shades.

I also like green but do you think green eyes and blue sword will be funny? Or do I need to do green sword too

**Capamaru**

Nice clean job mate.

According to this http://colorschemedesigner.com/ the osl must be green although I think red will be fine too.

Couple of objections. I can see some mold lines on both arms. It is a shame since the color scheme is promising and you are doing a nice crisp job till now, why spoil it with mold lines.

The holes on the storm bolter are made with a 1mm drill, I prefer on terminators 1,5mm it looks nicer IMHO. Other than that I am waiting to see the model after washing since the paint scheme is

very nice

Hey thanks for the reply. I took care of a lot of mould lines and realized after the first coat of purple that I had overlooked some of them. It's a shame but these are my first models so I think I should get a grace

Green eyes will look cool for sure I have some very nice greens I haven't tested yet.

So green eyes and blue swords?

Thanks for the tip about the bolters. My pin vice only came with those drill bits.

What are you guys using for te mold lines anyway? I find sandpaper is okay at best

**Eclipseone**

Before the oil wash then highlighting the seals and such

**Squidmanlolz**

The eyes should definitely be done in yellow, make them stand out really nicely.

**Eclipseone**

Was thinking nearly lime green osl for the eyes. Standard blue sword. Getting excited as I'm almost there then I need to make a base

**Eclipseone**

Updated

Don't mind my mistakes I'm pretty shaky and newb with a brush

Almost done just need weapons and a base. Ideas for a base?

**Eclipseone**

Force weapons too bright?

Just a test
