love the model, crisp, clean paint job paint job, which makes for a overall great job! I like how the one missle pod is out, and the other one is still not fired, and the black and yellow stripes which are a classic. Keep them coming.....

Excellent use of colors and nice basing. Only recommendation is the gun looks a little plan compared to the model, but if you really wanted to stress the model then it makes sense. I also really like the look of one missile pod being fired and one missile pod not being fired. Nice job again!

This is a very nice model and it has very clean crisp lines.

Now it may be the photo but I would suggest more extreme highlighting on the guns.

appart from that it's a fine piece and you should be proud of your handy work!!

The highlights didn't show up very well in the pics, and look much sharper on the model itself, but I do agree it can use another nice thin edge of white to really make it pop. I'll post new pics when I finish.

Thanks for the comments and advice, mates. :yes:

Love the paint job, excellent work there. I (like everybody else) like what you did with the missle pods, but one thing that really caught my eye was the pose you gave the model. Simply brilliant. It looks like he leaning over and bracing himself for the inevitable railgun recoil. Great job. One minor gripe (And i mean minor) is the legs seema bit close together, kinda like he's trying to squat or something. Barely noticable though.

That pastel blue is an interesting colour choice....I like it ...it's purdy

Nice paint job too!

Would love to see your army....or what you've painted so far.

Heres a few random pics. Alot of these are aold pics and quite a few of these models have been touched up or completely re-done (crisis suits), but this should give you a general idea of what everything looks like. If I ever finish this army :hmm: , I'll re-take pics of the whole thing and post it along with the fluff.

Thanks for all comments...
