Ok, ok, I know everybody tired of these by now. Another autarch. As usually, suggestions and critique will be appreciated

The blends look really good. A few of the transitions seem little abrupt to me, but not many. Excellent paint job. Voted.

Howdy. The colors are very very bright. So much so I think it is too much. I think the highlighting really dominates the figure, when actually it could use more shading.

In particular, the crest/headpiece really need more definition and I think a simpler color pallette would be better.

All in all, I can\'t fault your technique, the painting and the blending seem pretty solid. My biggest criticism is the pallette.

A simpler pallette with fewer colors would be better I think. Right now I think I see every color in the spectrum on this figure and that makes it hard for the eye to focus on the good things you have done.

Did the vote thing.

Voted and left a comment.. biggest suggestion is get a good matt sealer.. yours is too shiny. A bad shiny sealer will ruin the appearance of a well painted model.

Hmm the way it was done. one layer of glosscote, three layers of Dullcote - both from testor. Do you use different brand or should I try more layers of dullcote?

Nice paint job. I would say that the paint on the head piece looks a little thick otherwise the whole fig is very good. Love the color scheme very eldarish. Voted.

I like it. You have a few things going on that i have never seen before. I agree with ogrebane, head looks a little too thick but its a nice piece non the less. :beer:
