Nice work. I like the color schemes overall and the banding on the frost sabers pelt.

Light colors are tricky. Specially for painters who use a lot of washes/shades in their technique. You could try relayering in a white midtone around the top open portions of the pelt. Such as the shoulders, ribs, and hips. Avoid the hollows between the ribs at the pelvis. Follow it up with some edge highlighting in a brighter white. It would help to clean up the lines of the model.

You're certainly table top legal though.

yeah I usually rely on the washes for details & shading it it in, so the shading for example under his legs is a mess. Especially since the sabre is relativly smooth, so can't even use the textures to my advantage. Also didn't help that I didn't have the right colours, so it took me 3 tries to find a white that looked warm enough to be fur, and not just plastic or paper.

Ah well, it looks decent enough from a distance I guess

Contrast paints ftw

Also, I finally found something thin enough to actually make eyes with.

Some ogors. These are ridiculously easy to paint with contrast paints. Only thing I don't like is that contrast paints require a light undercoat, and it stands out whenever you miss a spot. Whereas dark undercoats are much less noticeable if you miss a small spot.

The Ogors came out great! If you put in a bit of clean up work to smoothing out the darker stains you could bump them up past tabletop plus. They are solid as they are though.

Flicked through your early stuff, looks good.

These ones are great! Keep 'em coming!

As an 8th Edition Ogre Kingdoms player, put a smile on my face.

yeah I think I'l get some more of these when I further expand my Admech army, or well only got a handfull of admech anyway. But they look rather cool. Don't play a whole lot of 40K so no idea if they're good, I just like the idea of an admech cavalry army running in between some knights and such
