I do need to get into the habit of cleaning mold lines, pretty happy with how these guys are turning out
though! Will soon be a complete force that I'm sure someone will love to own :) as usual more on the blog :P

Not bad at all! Really like your quite lustrous blue, and the golds on the terminators are amazing. For me though, the red on the helmets looks a little flat (could just be the pictures, as red is a notoriously difficult colour to capture; the reason why optimus prime was mostly blue with flames in the transformers movies!) The sternguard's guns are also a little uniteresting. Maybe pick out the skull/totemmic devices in red to help make them pop and reinforce the name link?

Overall a good job. I always love seeing a non-standard chapter, so well done you for doing that!

[mallet_man]

Cheers for the comments people :) yeah after seeing the pictures large on my computer screen it helps me to realize the details I need to pick out! and good shot soton shades with the red skulls :P
next up first half of the first tac squad!
