They are all very nice! :) I think you keep on refining your technique and It\'s been fun watching you progress!

The colourscheme of the GK is excellent, very regal and fitting. The light looks great as well. The small touches like the effect on the blade is also nice, it\'s great that you spend time on details like that it helps lifting up the entire miniature. I think the NMM could use slightly less midtones, meaning more shades and still keep the highlights bright. Small points of pure white could be used as well. But I really like the subdued greyish colour you\'ve got. Care to share the recipe?

Lara looks great, the highlights are smooth and you managed well with controlling the light. I think the blade is a bit too blue though it destracts a bit. And dont be afraid to go bright and contrasted on skin. Subtle doesn\'t necessary mean less highlights but more what colours you use, how much midtones and where you place the highlights. I think the skin could use some small points of light more, and the face could also use some more tones to it to make it more interesting. The lipcolour goes slightly to much onto the cheek from the upper lip as well.. it\'s just a fraction of a mm but it makes the lips look slightly unnatural imo. Painting the upperlip is difficult.

The final Dark angel again it has great colours, love the contrast between them, and very smooth transitions. The face looks great as well as a focal point. The only criticism I have is to echo the previous comment on the NMM. The best piece of NMM on it is the little cross on his chest where I think you got the contrast to really work.

Again great job on all of them!

very nice on all of them. I have to agree with avelorn on the NMM and it could be a little smoother IMO. great stuff though, you handled all that black very well.

thx guys for comments it\'s really helpful.
Avelorn: armor for gk was simply painted with: adeptus battlegrey with black 5/5 and highlighting with adding white to this mix;] you could use also codex grey becouse adeptus battlegrey is from new foundation paint set.

Cheers!
