scorpion with light effects

This was a commission work for a forgeworld-model. To add something special I had the idea to sculpt the fireing pulsar-cannons and reflect the light on the scorpions hull. This is how it came out. The engines are painted with the same light-effect, but there was not enough place here for a good pic. With the pure size of the model and the freehand-painting I added it was much more work than I thougt. (Everybody told me, but I just don't believed them.)

Awsome work, but why doesn't it have the original Scorpion hull?

Thanks a lot for the comments. I just wanted to explain the weaker reflection on one side. I had a lot of work with it, cause the pulsar is not firing in a straight line. The turret is turned a bit over the left side-fin. I choose the harsh reflections to support the image of a strong but extremly short energy-blast. But maybe a smoother reflection would have been better.

I feel like an ass for critizising this wonderful model, but here goes: I don't like the broad and harsh highlights on the green/black side-fins. In all other aspects, this is brilliant! Love the cannon and the gems! :)
