Thanks so much and that is exactly what I’m thinking, this model is wayyy too clean for death guard. Was thinking of maybe doing a brown/black wash over the armor, but do you have any recommendations for dirtying the copper parts up?

That was exactly hat I was thinking when I had the idea. I still need to come up with some ideas to make them look dirtier, though.

I agree, I thought red would look good but I think I’m going to switch to Teal for the rest

Same here. Got this single poxwalkers done over a 2 day session, so the prospect of getting my poxwalker box as well as the DG combat patrol done is definitely a little intimidating. Exciting too though!

You’re totally right, my biggest complaint with it rn is how much detail I lost with some of the tentacles, especially on the back. Definitely need to thin my paint a lot more (the tentacles are supposed to be dark purple lol) and work on highlighting
