Awesome style of painting. Super clean, and great detail but it's the colour schemes and contrast between the colours that really define these. Great job.

Nice job! Professional detail and I enjoyed the use of the metal figures!

Metal figures are nice to work with imho, despite the fact that paint tends to chip easily, regardless of the basecoat (I use a polyurethane basecoat)

I thoroughly enjoyed the pewter models, my only problem was finding a glue that would hold arms to torsos or even just legs to plastic base. The worst experience I had was with that of a Tau Broadside which contained both plastic and pewter parts that usually didn't hold together well, even with the citadel superglue of 2005.

Nice paint work. I find for larger metal pieces, pinning and J-B Weld works (a drop of CA holds the pieces together while the epoxy sets). Medium CA for just about everything else.

Using a hand drill and wire really helps when assembling some models, I highly suggest it.

On the note of the hand drill; I purchased a command squad of Krieg Death Korps and was slightly discouraged by the fact that I would need a drill bit of maybe 1/64th of an inch? Still a good idea though.
