So, I'm in the process of painting up my 'Nids and the thought occurred to me... Why not post a few shots here and get some advice? To that end, I grabbed my camera, threw up a light, plunked down the models, and snapped a few shots. To my surprise, all but three are crap. I don't know if it's the light (standard half-cowled but bright desk lamp) or the camera (seven years old), but the fact is that the vast majority of the pics I took aren't fit for viewing.
Alas, that means all you get this post is a total of three shots. Thank God they're all of one model! My beloved Hive Tyrant. The pics are different angles, with a close-up of his wings at the end. Sorry about the quality... The paint really isn't that chaulky, and the brown has a ton of flesh highlight that got muted.
