Grey Knight in Power Armour

Here, with my new camera, you have close up shots of my Grey Knight! :D Vibrant colour scheme as usual :rolleyes: He is slightly converted, I added a few guitar strings and repositioned him. The base was great fun to make, I wanted the model dark and dirty. I'm quite pleased with the slime pouring from the pipe, and the tau railgun. This mini was a great opportunity for me to practise my metallics, and I think they came out alright :) I washed with greens, browns and black, and for the vents in the backpack and the arm/leg joints, I added purples, blues and greens for an oily effect. The golds I wanted to be brighter in comparsion to the gritty silver tones. I didn't use any inks at all; all the metals were shaded with diluted paint only. The lenses were a bastard to paint! Overall, I'm quite pleased with this mini and I might enter him in Youngbloods this year. Comments welcomed, I hope you like him :) ~Bill

I'm impressed every time I see your minis. Your painting skills is high above your age. I love the dirty metals, and the bast looks awesome too. Cheers, Mikkel.

I'm not going ot give any + points for age. I think it's a silly way to gain higher scores that you might not deserve. Nevertheless, i like his armour and the eyes. Some areas like the bolter needs to be cleaned up though. His backpack could also use some more depth, it looks a bit flat at the moment.
