Thanks for the comments. Glad you guys like it. Maybe they will bring out a henkei.. shame .. shame hasbro to milk the line. hehehe

Quite several days went into this one. White is such a .... to do. But the end result was good on this so I am happy.

as with the others, he looks fantastic! It's a crying shame that Hasbro couldn't be buggered to do it properly, i'm just glad to have a mate like you that can sort him out and make him look the way he should.

I like all 3 that you've done but I think this one is the best. I'm about to start some custom repainting myself (I haven't painted anything since warhammer days in high school) I hope it goes well. I'll probably be too embarrased to oshow them here after these efforts.

Dont be embarrased, never start out perfect when you do them, you learn from mistakes you make.
I have done a few customs as well, none as good as these, but I like how mine have turned out. Except the first couple I did, turned out horrible lol. I will post them when I have finished my latest project anyway.

Hey thanks guys. Batrim, absolutely.. dont be shy. My first few customs were badly painted and embarrassing but they still hold true to my heart. I dont know if you guys remember, I did an MP Warpath. It was okay.. but would do it much better today.. :)

These still have room to improve, and I have to admit, Painting is not my strong point though I do enjoy it. Warhammer days are going to make you an exceptional painter. Start off with the paint from Citadel. They are easy to use and great effect. If you make a mistake, they can come off easier. Then onto the enamels...

1Axreal1 - post them. Its a trip down memory lane and I am sure it holds a special place in your heart too right.. :)

Liege, absolutely, Stencilator have got that right for sure.. I just got it right this time.
