Good way to finally finish up my army? About a battle company of dark angels I've been slowly gathering the last 5 years, most of it is still grey plastic

Tbh, the sprays are nice if you paint an army that uses a lot of the colour. Like the Leadblecher spray is pretty great for batchpainting Necrons and everything thats a big robot with lots of metal parts.

better?

immensely
The look very realistic colour wise only work would be the metal on the rifle, it's both shiny and spotty, like a dollar toy, id recommend a full metal layer and then a wash to darken it down and accentuate crevices.

thanks, what do you think about the eagle on the helmet? should i add brass or just leave it for the grunts?

Someone on tg recommended starting metallic red with gold/brass. Can anyuone here elaborate? Or if feeling extra generous post a dark red metallic power armor tutorial?

Brass or steel for me, though I can see leaving them as is as well since a shiny forehead badge would be a tempting target in the trenches.

Gloss or semi?

Not big on morty's face, trying a chainmail thing. How's it look?
I like it, but I want opinions and critique from some folks better at sculpting than I am.

Think about it like the metal on a car. I want the armor to look like it's really metal.
