Ave dominus Machina!

Today I finished painting my Onager Dunecrawler and wanted to share the results:



What Do you think? What Should I improve?

I like the color scheme!

I would highlight the black a tad though. It looks unfinished to just have flat black in such large areas.

Thanks! I have mixed some blue paint into the black, maybe next one I'll try to make it "warmer" by adding some Eshin Grey into Abaddon Black.

An edge highlight of Eshin Grey should help. Right now the contrast between the torso and legs is a little too stark

I made edge highlight with Rhinox Hide after being a little bit inspired by Warhammer TV doing its video on how to paint Fallen.

Very cool colourscheme.

Better pictures would be helpful, but I'm really liking what I see so far.

Now double! And with scenic bases!





Sorry if images suck. I'm doing my very best with insufficient resources at hand (seriously my camera sucks hard and I haven't done my lightbox yet)

Lookin' good. I don't think the base adds much honestly (not from my normal standpoint of "the base is too big!") I just mean they look cool without it, and would blend into the table MUCH better without it (and you can place them waaaay easier on more terrain that way).

Nice paint scheme
I feel the black is too flat and could use some stronger highlights and/or chipping to help define it.

Yeah I think that you are right. Rhinox Hide, though cool idea, is way too dark. Might want to redone the highlights with Eshin Grey.

Yeah unfortunately it's a tournament requirement for them to have bases. Such a shame.
