Assault Squad (Second half is old models from before i bought the codex and wanted to play that i took apart to finish the ten man squad hence the thick paint and overall poop. also missing shoulder pads because I'm waiting on RG transfer from forgeworld)

NOTE: While c+c is definitely welcome I'm kind of a lazy painter. while I want a High tabletop quality army my laziness takes over and looks for the easy way out. also quite a few of those models were victim to a virgin painter so thick paint and shaky hands and such happened and I've tried fixing and going over and made it worse so those models will see no more love. also my green stuff skills are horrible and I'd rather spend money on models than basing stuff at the moment as this collection took over a year because of lack of funds. too much responsibility to sink all my money into the hobby unfortunately. Currently on deck is a 10 man vanguard squad and Shadow Captain Korvydae once he gets here (in the mail with my transfer sheet) will post as soon as complete. or possibly piecemeal as i plan on dedicating my time to individual models instead of pumping them out as fast as i can. Maybe I can find a better camera and get some nice lamps when they're done as well.

Not bad. One thing you might think about doing is painting your white first with Astronomican Grey or Deneb Stone (my suggestion would be Astronomican Grey). The pigment is much thicker so it will help make the white not be so blotchy without having to put down as many layers.

what white are you talking about? i can only think of two that might require the grey undercoat and thats my helmets which i like the dirty look so they are actually washed with badab black same with the lightning claws. and if you are talking about the dreadnought shoulders i was trying to do a clean white but i was a noob and did layer upon really thick layer. if you could be more specific that would be great but I'll definitely pick up that color and take it in consideration when i do paint my whites

I was thinking of the free hand, like the Ravens on the banners.

The freehand will soon go away to be replaced by transfers.
