Found this little guy in the bottom of my box....one of my previous failed attempts at getting into WH 40K never painted him.So i based him and painted him with some random paints i had.Any tips/critism welcomed.
Gonna use him as a lone wolf in my space wolves army ;)

Enjoy! :D

Pretty darn good for a first go at mini painting :so_happy:

My only nitpick is the eyes, which are a bit bright for my own tastes. But hey, it's not my marine :)

I'm sure there'll be plenty of more useful comments regarding painting techniques headed this way. (Looking at you Mr Hobbit! :) )


Keep it up! :)

He looks kind of dusty, did you clean him off after you found him?

but as for a first painted mini, it is pretty good, I've seen players who have painted for at least a year and are horrible compared to yours. He looks like he could use a coloured wash to bring out some more details.
