Hello,

I've been painting a couple of death company miniatures recently and, although I like them, I was hoping someone could give me some tips to improve the remaining units before I paint them. I want the whole squad to look unified so I don't want to make any drastic changes that'll show between these models and the ones still to come but if there are any tips to improve then please share them. Thanks!

I'd work on making anything that isn't black pop more, and avoid anything being black that needn't be.

So to tie that to specifics on your models - spend more time in the gems, get some orange and yellow highlights in them to add depth and a whit spot to give them a gleam, and look to paint things like the handle and power cable of the hammer in another colour too, to break up the black. I do Raven Guard, and I often do the cables in red to break up the monochrome look, but as you're already using quite a lot of red, perhaps another spot colour, Moot Green maybe?
