Hi to all
This is my first try with pigments, never used before and i must say i think i have fallen in love!
Comments and criticism are welcomed!

He looks pretty good to me. I especially like the blood splatter and the orange lenses.

My peice of hopefully helpful advice is to narrow down your palette; right now it looks like you have silver as your primary colour and then gold for trim, but then you have a lot of blues, a lot of yellows, a ton of red and even some green and orange.

I'd use red for the blood splatter; it looks cool and its well done, but other than the medicae symbol I'd stop using it.

Next I'd choose blue OR green for the vials and apothecary gear, but make it more dark and less like its radioactive . For the vials you can paint them to make them look half full and it will help keep the colour from getting too overwhelming

I'd use whichever colour not used on the vials for his bionic eyes, either would look really cool and would really pop; sadly the orange just blends in with the yellows and golds

As for that yellow I'm really digging the hazard stripes, however the pistol casing and yellow tube isn't very useful as the solid chunks of yellow really pull my eyes towards them and to all the sweet details on the model, the exhaust vents are a maybe imo.

Anyways thats enough from me, I really love how you're doing Iron Warriors since I don't see them often (especially in HH) and you're a good painter, you just need to work on placement a bit

Thanks for the advices, well probably you are right Skymask about the palette, its a little too rich.
Main problem is that rarely notice this problems given i'm parti ally colour-blind, usually i try to paint things with a realistic color they can have in the real world, but probably should try to be more homogeneus.
