I've gotten a fair bit further with these guys. This time I'm doing the painting in a different order and have now finished all the metallic (except a few icons on the weapons) and black areas with shades and highlights, instead of doing it like I did before, where I first did all base colors, then shades, then highlights (more or less).
Next step will be eyes and purity seals, before I finish off with the armor, but that will be a few days, as we are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary this weekend, which doesn't leave much time for painting.

WIP: Ultramarines Tactical Squad II
Quickly on to another tactical squad for the commission. Besides slightly different equipment, this unit will get the same treatment as the last one. I'm looking forward to getting this one done, so I can get on to something a bit different.

Ultramarines Tactical Squad
The first tactical squad is finished and I am just about to get started on the second. I opted for decals for the logos, which I painted over to remove the shine and make them look a bit more random. I didn't have complete success with using Microsol to get them nice and smooth, probably because I didn't have any Microset to brush on first, but they look decent.
