Hey guys, I've finished up my first Ultramarine paint job today. I haven't gone near the hobby in about 15 years..Was going for the grim dark worn and weathered look, any advice and tips most welcome as very new to the painting world really and keen to learn!

Cheers

That’s a pretty damn good job!
Looks like he’s been in the dirt for days, in the best way.

"very new to painting" yeah right. Pull the other one ?
There is not much to crit. It looks like you are able to get the paint where you want it to be and you have a very strong style.
I could say that maybe the base could do with some interest and maybe the eyes would stand out more if it looked like they had an inner glow.
Why not try some osl on a plasma gun or something. It looks amazing when you get it right.
Vim ?
