Issues with New Custodes' Models

You know while the swords are silly, I think guardian spears are pretty spot-on weapons for a baroque sci-fi bodyguard, and they look pretty practical to me. Polearms are pretty great after all, and these ones aren't absurdly huge compared to 40k-sized things. 

They're not the most elegant models compared to the artwork but I've just finished painting mine and found them quite nice to do (the swords are silly tho).   I made a point of really dialing back the gold and found that adding more red and other colours to the scheme helped them a bit.   I had the same thing with the sanguinary guard models, the official scheme makes them look like the Adeptus Dubai.   Even GW's stormcast models look better with less gold, although I've never painted any myself.
