Well, I decided to take the bit between my teeth today and get the first couple of test models done. So here we have the Night Lord:
...And the Iron Warrior:
I've discovered a few things from this:
- Yellow's a git to paint
- Getting a bridge digital camera to focus on such a small object so close to the lens is a pain in the posterior
- Close-up miniature photography shows off a ton of imperfections I didn't notice when painting, which when one is one's own worst critic isn't great
- Lightning's a sight easier to paint than I thought
- Come back 2nd Edition Citadel paints, we love you!
Of the two I personally prefer the Night Lord, but I still have to try doing an Ultramarine- watch this space. Despite my comments on yellow I'm also thinking of trying an Imperial Fist, because I've got a cunning idea...
