I posted a thread way back in September trying to get back into the swing of things (Dark Angels - First one in 4 years. Opinions and help? - incase anyone was interested). Havent picked up a model since until last week (well maybe on the odd occasion). This thread is a WIP for the army I'm re-painting. Consists of a Master, 3 scout squads, vet squad, dreadnought, terminator squad and an attack bike.
Currently I have the Master painted (see pictures), 1 scout sniper finished, and 2 vets finished. The rest of the scouts are at various stages and I'll post pictures soon.
Aiming for *slightly above* tabletop quality as I dont really play anymore, but want to have an army just in case I do again.
On my first post I give you progress on the master and veteran (you decide) since the last post, plus a converted scout sniper, and a random eldar somethingorother.
Master:

Veteran

After (brighter highlights on armour and cloak)

Scout Sniper (I'll get more angles if needed)

I can already see some major improvements between the other two and this one. Also, after taking the pictures I can see a few bits need tidying up (right boot, blend the right leg strap better etc)
I'm planning to get all of the scouts in the army to this kind of standard (or better!). What colour cloaks shall I do for the rest of the scout snipers? They're the same as the armour ATM, but thinking of making them the same colour as the camo trousers.
Also
Random Eldar - What colours should I do for the hair and gun, I need 2 colours that will fit with the rest of the model.

This is a random model a mate gave me and I'm just doing it to break up painting the rest of the army.
Any criticisms/ hints on how to improve any of the models above are very welcome!
Thanks
