I like the base but I feel it would be better if the aquila was parallel to the hazard kerbing IMO. At the moment it looks like it was painted on by a drunken servitor :P Try moving it off centre more towards the top (of the picture :roll: ). That way it won't be entirely covered up by the Sentinels feet when you put it all together.

Hope you show us more pics as you progress

Good luck with it

Only Mig Pigments. I've tried some Andrea Earth pigments...but are not so good like Mig. :D

Very nice. I like the airbrushed camoflage. Not often you see people attempting camo on such a small Imperial Guard vehicle, most of the ones I have seen tend to be one colour.

i would suggest some of the darker green colour to spread more to the edges of the shapes and surfaces, and to take up a little more space too in the middle sections.
eg, from this

to this

I like you suggested camo improve....but for my low airbrush experience the actual camo pattern is the best results i can...It's very difficult works with low pressure and non noozle cap ....trying do not make a disaster :mrgreen:

its majority 2 colours at the moment, so if you do too much dark green, you can go back with the light green. it won't take that much time.

With the dragomira I airbrushed, I ended up having to re-base coat it 4 or 5 times for I kept stuffing up the shading & highlights, but that was a good learning experience.
