Awesome mate. Love the cockpit, as if it reflects a city skyline. Excellent. Also great colour use and contrasts.

Thanks Mate! I've been dying to put some color on him for a while. The cockpit gave me the most anxiety, just couldnt decide the colors and tones.  I'm pleased that people think it came out well! :D Makes me very happy!

That looks stunning! I can't decide which bit I like best! Is the hexagon effect part of the miniature or just brushwork?

The hexes are part of the model. I was a little intimidated at first, but they came off easier than I thought!

I remember that hexagonal scale armour! I remember wondering why it wasn't shown in the tech readout, back when I was 14...  ;)

Lovely work, and thank you for sharing.
