Here is my attempt at Chaplain Elysius, The Forgefather, and Captain Pellas "The Winter Blade" Mir'san. This is also my first attempt at edge highlighting and shading.
Apologies for poor camera phone pics, but we know how much college students make lol.

Your paints are not thin enough. Needs more wash. |

I'd say you have a real nice start there! I like the deep green color on the armor.
A couple tips:
-straighten Vulkan's spear!
-a light drybrush on the drake scales (vulkan's cloak) would give them a bit more dimension
Good job overall

boiling water, dip the spear in briefly, then straighten it out, then dip it in ice cold water. Obviously it's better to do it before you paint it

Since you have already painted it, you can use a hair drier to soften the resin and bend it back.
