These guys look really cool, going to be old loyalist Death Guard or does the color scheme just resemble it?

The color scheme was decided in a way :) . Which colors that I hadent used for a while and colors that I wanted to paint with for a whole army. At same time they sholdnt resemble any of the more popular choices for marines, I wanted to make them more generic since I really dont know yet which factions in Marines I should play. I know to little about the game yet to make a choice.

Wow those Space Marines are wonderfully painted. I love how subtly reflective everything looks, especially the knee areas on the guy right in the front center.

Very good results for just 2 hours! Skin and NMM specially takes a lot of time (at least in my case).

Speedpainting is another area I am working to improve, since I have tons of unpainted 28mm minis, and a tabletop finish is just what I need. So any tip that you found useful is more than welcomed :)

Back to the Aileen bust from nocturna. Have removed the quvier and the leatherstrap holding up. Just resculpted it to cloathes instead to make the model more neutral.
Still strugling with lower part of face and it dont look so old yet. WIll let that part be for the moment and work more on the texture on the cloathes instead.

Thanks Andy and yes Maxxx it is starting to look very diffrent. Learning a lot on this one. Now tryingmore texture on cloath. Have repainted the face a couple of times to understand waht i am doing. It is noticable sadly, but still very nice to try to learn new things.

Yes Kretcher i agree to many creases. I think the forehead and around the lips are great but the ones under the eyes and cheeks look a bit wrong imo. I think there needs to be less and also more vertical. A bit like this i feelView attachment 79020

“Anybody can look at a pretty girl and see a pretty girl. An artist can look at a pretty girl and see the old woman she will become. A better artist can look at an old woman and see the pretty girl that she used to be. But a great artist--a master--and that is what Auguste Rodin was--can look at an old woman, portray her exactly as she is . . . and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to be . . . and more than that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an armadillo, or even you, see that this lovely young girl is still alive, not old and ugly at all, but simply prisoned inside her ruined body.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land
