Dark Angels captain (Black Reach HQ model)

An early attempt at some gold here. Tried to place a decal and trim it into position - I'm not sure it turned out as well as I would have liked it to. I was quite happy with the banner from the DA Veteran set. I still have to work on getting the glow of a power sword right. I'm definitely missing something. Comments, thoughts, ideas are appreciated.

I think you did a nice, clean job laying down the paint, which is essential to any good paint job. however, I think you could stand to be much more aggressive with your shading and highlighting. It would make this miniature POP! There are some great articles here on this sight if you are new to shading and highlighting, check them out and give it a try. and dont forget to thin your paints with a bit of water, it will work miracles. keep up the good work. :)
