Hey all, I am very new to this. I just got back into 40k after 5 years after a couple of my friends asked me about playing again. I have a passion for Warhammer like never before! This XV8 is my first attempt, so go easy on me, but could I have some advice? Any advice would be wonderful. This is still a W.I.P, but I thought that whilst I'm waiting on delivery of some black paint to paint the metals, I may as well seek some help from the members of this seemingly great forum. Thanks!

Frankly that looks great to me. It's not Golden Demon but it is a more than adequate tabletop model and you should have no worries about laying an army like that out for a game.

I would detail the burst cannon in a metallic or grey colour.

The base is nice as well.

Apart from the fact that it is not completely painted, it is good tabletop quality. I wouldn't use white for highlights, too much contrast and no connection to the rest of the colours.
