I think a green glow would look nice. Where were you planning on adding it?

naaah, at least in case of cryx army that's just tabletop painting - it took me 2 evenings to paint whole thing, not long evenings btw :)

well it's not the matter of loosing time - I just want the model look decent :)

ok - there will be the glow :D
and I think I'll paint it on replicator (tail weapon) and around neck-vents :think:



what color should I use for shading silver elements? any ideas? simple brown tones? :think:
or maybe better solution is painting these elements grey?

do you really need any advice regarding painting metal? ;)
my latest idea for metal shades is purple, but I'm not sure if it would work on your dark piece.

painting silver so it looks nice on pics...
I also used some reddish tones for shading on the brighter sice and blues on the dark side but I think I should add more layers to make these tones visible :?
anyway silver elements don't look such crappy in reality but here we can only judge and comment pictures

and here's another one!
it should've been posted last afternoon but I added new hardware to my pc - and I have to take it to the service again :?
my pc didn't work long enough to replace the background with better one...
anyway here's golab - so far the first and only dark age modei lin my collection; today morning I highlighted the monument a bit (on pics looks much darker than I expected), I am also considering adding something on metal parts - weathering, rust, ANYTHING to make is less boring aaand I am thinking about painting a little bit blood pouring from the stitch-thingies on the head :think:

Very clean and bright. Not something I would expect from you but I like it. The skin is looking maybe a bit too healthy for my taste but I still like the piece as a whole! :)
