That's an incredible shade of blue you've got there!

In the spirit of trying my hardest to give some constructive criticism... Maybe the drop pod is a little plain? Perhaps paint some hazard stripes to really make it pop? Either that or some red/white panels to tie it into the rest of the army?

@ Drop Pod
Yeah, thats really a thing with something to improve a bit. Buuuut:
- Hazard Stripes are only common for Space Wolves
- Red is only used on weapons
- Chapter Insignia are on the doors (which are burried in the ground)
I could do some checkers or simply ignore the Space Wolves fact. The later would probably be the wisest choice.

Some stunning minis, the making of a wonderful army.

Personally I'd paint some white on the drop pods, judging from the rhinos that's the secondary colour.

lol wut? I think you're fine with them if you so decided as such.
However I agree, checkers would be more awesome as they'd visually tie them into the rest of the army.

Crap, all pictures I found had no stripes. Even the Imperial Armour Vol2 lists only the space wolves one with hazard stripes :O
Funnily ONLY Terminators had those stripes, and only on the Cyclone, Powerfist and the blade of the Chainfist. AmIRight?

Pretty much only the power fist as I recall. I think with the power fists it's just a pragmatic "do not touch" thing. Same with the drop pod except that's more a pragmatic "don't get your hand caught." I imagine one of those doors would pop a power armour gauntlet like a peanut.

Well I will be updating the Drop Pod, but I will first focus on getting more units done. Next up: Whirlwinds and a Hunter

Furthermore, I have finished my Base for my Thunderhawk. Not sure on the objective counters, though. Something is still missing with those :(

Sickeningly beautiful work as always!

I propose that we, the forum members, work out some kind of largo time share. We kidnap him, and pass him around until all our minis are painted! :D
