Description Nope, I doubt it's all dead sky, black sun.

Iron Warriors, wanted to do the guys for quite a while.

Brutal stuff mate.

The colours are nice and vibrant, all the warm hues are in there. I would add that the gun could use some sort of underlighting so it's shape is more easily defined by the eye. A cool green or blue underlighting would make a nice contrast, but might compromise the 'intense heat' theme that gives this piece its impact.
Perhaps the same kind of underlighting you have on the pipes surrounding the head?

The suit itself its fantastic, instantly recognisable. Great attention to detail, especially the lighting on the cracks in the shoulder pads.

I would suggest that you could squeeze more detail into the cylindrical vent/exhaust/pipe things at the top of the armour (whatever you call the things you see on the back of trucks)
The colouring makes them seem a bit flat, instead of cylindrical. To make them more 3D you could have had the yellow notches get more frequent and spaced closer together towards the sides, as the surface angles away from the eye.

Let me try to visualise what I mean:

lll ll l l l ll lll

instead of

l l l l l l l l l l

Do you get me? and the surface should get lighter in shade as it angles away from the eye. It looks like you've already applied that lighting effect but it's extremely subtle and could do with a change in shade more like on the shoulder pads.
Suggest spreading the highlight along the outline towards the centre of the cylinder.

That's as far as it goes for me, assume that everything I haven't mentioned I'm impressed by!

Very well done, and a great representation of the iron warriors, i love the cracks in the caramite shoulder plates and so coming from a devout ultramarine who at first glance wished to purge the world of heretics i tell you this... Good work.

Как я умудрился пропустить ЭТО?
Очень выразительная фигура и доспех классно смотрится-парень с огоньком! Ствол и выхлопные трубы только как-то к фону \"выпали\". Хотя на мой взгляд это мелочи. Я не художник, поэтому воспринимаю картинку целиком (нравится-не нравится. Нравится!!!

Fantastic!

I am actually an Iron Warriors player, and I agree with you in that Medrengard can't have a completely white sky. After all, it's literally a Chaos Forgeworld in its own right!
