Per the title - this is the first time I've ever uploaded anything in the showcase, and it's also my first time basing a model! Went halfsies on a Knight Renegade box a few weeks back, and I've put about 10 hours into this guy (although he's still not *quite* finished). Pretty happy with the results, though - definitely one of the best paintjobs I've ever done!

Looks pretty good - going to detail the lines/rivets a bit? The huge areas of white need a little breaking up. I'd be happy (er...scared?) to face that thing.

If you do a bit of shading on the white with a diluted light grey then gradually shade it darker as you hit the edges/creases, it should look a little better.

Elbows - hadn't really thought about it, but that's a good idea! A little bit of silver on the rivets would really help them pop.

Tactical_Spam - I'll have to try that out on one of the less visible areas and see how I like it. Right now I need a break from it!

Just a small amount of wash in the plates and use that bronze you have on the front armour on the rivets and you'll add a bit to break it up, indeed!

That white is really smooth, so well done! I'm terrible with white, so I'm impressed!
