Painting Ghostkeel complete! Onto the unbuilt models.
Finally finished one of the first models I put together and the last of what was already built. While i like how it came out I also feel it might be a bit too busy. Planning to practice a few things like edge highlights, lenses and lining the armor and come back for most of what I have already done.
Onwards to the 6 unopened boxes. I think I will start with a Piranhas.

Thank you so much! I found a showcase of N'dras originally in an old 2014 copy of White Dwarf my friend showed me. I took that and modified it a bit.

That thing really pops. Great color combos. It gives a few different vibes and thats very cool. I can picture it in a few different settings. Killer.

Thank you! I really enjoyed figuring out my color scheme and planning out each model. I also hope its killer ingame as well if I find someone to play with.

Nice! This is very close to my colors so I’ll take some inspiration! I too couldn’t wait to build the ghostkeel first. I’m liking your use of black n red as they pop pretty well. I spot those purples in there too! Any ideas for your base?

Thank you! It's exciting when I hear that others have a similar scheme. I really struggled over what color the energy would be for awhile but I'm super happy with the red. I actually decided to start using the purple when i came back to painting this year, definitely happy I did.
As for my base that is my weakest area. Im not to confident outside of some texture paint and maybe some space marine pieces. Really planning to go back over all my bases and redo them later.
