Hi Guys.
I just finished my 1st Imperial Knight so I thought I would share it and get some feedback.
I am a bit worried I went to hard on the rusting and the source lighting but its a bit late now
I still have to mount a Hellbrute on this guys base getting hacked up by the Imperial Knight but
its not quite ready yet.
I also have another 2 Imperial Knights I will add here once they are complete

The OSL I'm not so sure about, but the rust is awesome. Looks like someone forgot them in the garage for a very long time. Like some relics found and revived on a forgotten planet. I think you should keep up rusting them like this for the whole army to really give them the look of old forgotten technology.

Looks great! Can't wait to build and paint my knight!
The light from the street light looks good, not too crazy about the plasma pistol. I would tone it down or maybe even remove it.

Looks very cool, very dark and gritty, and I'm sure it will look even better with the Hellbrute. I see what you mean about the OSL; it looks a little strange to me because the lit areas are very close in colour and brightness to the light source. Perhaps brightening the light source (maybe up to actual white) would make it look a little better? I don't know, you're clearly a much better painter than I am so this is pure speculation on my part.

Love the rust and grit. I think the OSL from the streetlight is good, but the green from the plasma pistol is overdone. To have it spread that far, with that saturation, I’d expect to see a very bright source for it. And I don’t.
