Some thoughts:

1) The picture's fairly graining when zoomed in. Makes it hard to see some of the details, especially the tail. It's also hiding a lot of your marble effect.

2) It would look better with the barrels of the weapons drilled out with a pin vise.

3) There are spots where the winged logo on the wing meets the black armor that aren't clean lines. Zoomed in I could see the black creeping up onto the logo.

4) You need stronger highlights on the black armor to give the model some depth. I can't tell for certain due to the image quality, but it doesn't look like there are any.

Positive feedback:

The marbling looks good from a distance. A better photo might reveal it better.
Overall it's clean and neat, except the lines mentioned earlier, and. The white on the wings also doesn't look blotchy or thick, which is good as that's a lot of flat white.

Agree with the above post, and I'd add that you should mask the canopy and paint the canopy rails.

You've got an excellent TTQ thus far. I second the comment about the canopy, both of my talons have painted canopy rails & it really adds so much to the model.

Additionally, try using a macro setting with a soft flash, or no flash & indirect daylight bulbs. This would showcase your work so much better & help us to see the little things easier.
