Try to be kind  He's not completely finished as I noticed some things while taking his picture. Need to paint the steel toes on his boots and trim some flash off his helmet.      |

| thats pretty good! better then my crap-on-a-paintbrush. making the helmet rusty would be funny. (cause when you play an ork army you cant take them too seriously. your opponent on the other hand....) |

| Great! I dont know why (maybe im weird) but I really like the look of the trousers- a very stone washed jeans effect. Cant really think of any negatives, unless i held the model in my hand and studied in detail. Good work. +rep |

| Too bad a lot of my guard army (especially the first 2 squads I ever painted) look like ugly, badly-painted ass. I'll try to post some pics of them later so we can all laugh. |

| overall a great looking gaming model!  one thing; clean your mold lines... i notice some on the knee & helmet. granted it can be a rather time consuming affair, but it's time well spent in the end and it will drastically improve the overall look of your troops! cheers!
