Finished applying most of the metallic paints and shading. Just need to apply decals and add washes to the the armor plates. Possibly redo some of the heat effects to make them more subtle.

Love it, without better photos i can't give any criticism.

Which i suppose is criticism

The colours are great though, nice style

I would suggest some pattern/alternative color in sections before you apply the decals to make them pop, look at my gallery of IK for examples.

picking out some more details, such as tubing, perhaps paint the toes in the armor color as well; why is the shield a different color? its off atm.

How did you do that metallic red?

That metallic red looks wicked.

Red was done with Alclad's transparent red over their chrome. I actually messed it up. The red was supposed to be red chrome but I didn't put a layer of clear gloss over it before putting the red on it.

And as for giving it another color on the armor to make it pop, haven't really been sure what color to do it. Anything I would do has to be made from red, blue, or green and I've been very picky about what other color I'd want on this.

Blue would be a nice contrast, green would be terrible
