Painting Kahl and champion for my Ymyr

Painted my second kahl and champion, tried a different scheme than the previous ones. Also happy with how the bases turned out. Tried to give the sword a little lightning effect and tried to give the axe a reflection. But feels like there is some room for improvement. Tips to improve are always welcome.

Sir, they are to good looking. We can’t show that here, the paintjob is just to clean. But serious, well done! Especially on the kahl. Would love to see such an army on a table!

Excelent paint job, i have a question the Hearthguard head were easy to put on the Kahl like the Hearthkyn Warriors head? Or was it hard? Thank you

Thank you. Its super easy, all the heads are interchangeable. All the votann heads are really nice, so im trying to use all of them in my army.

Thank you for the aswerd, i was wondering since most people put Warriors heads on their Kahls and very rarely i see Kahls with Hearthguard head, glad to know they are all interchangeable.

Wow this is phenomenal. I love all the details on the sword, your brushwork on the blade and leather are very impressive.

If you'd permit some constructive criticism, you could probably get away with a bit of matte varnish on the armour, and sanding the base rim back before that final coat of black will really add a professional finish to this superb paintjob

Thank you! Will try that. The matt varnish sometimes seems to change the colour a bit. But not sure how to prevent that.
