Looking great mate, keep at it.
Might be better off posting a few photos if you want feedback, difficult to tell much from the video. 🙂
thorny hound

When asking for advise it pays to be specific
What look are you going for ?
Like for the big one, it has great plates. So it'll be a great look to give it a highlight on the edge. Light blue to fit the rest if the look. Pink if you want so funky look

That's a really good idea thank you sm I might give that a try and advise on anything people think I should add to bring it to a another level or things I've missed as I'm very new and just trying to pick up the best tips :)

It looks like a 1 colored fish, which can be the point and is a nice look for big groups
Or you can add some interesting stuff in like red or a red/pink
Like accents on the fins

Yeah I was thinking about that which is a really good point to bring up I've made another post with a little army of some normal medieval soldiers and I wanna change them up as they are painted in the same way could you give any ideas for them as I'm expanding there group and would love some ideas on how to make them have there own personality 😀

These guys ?
Sorry what do you mean?
sharp rock
You want suggestions for these guys?
thorny hound
Well yes the suggestions you have given I'm definitely gunna do as I think it will add something to them! But I've started a medieval type of army I've made a separate post on them and I've also put it in the chat as I really trying to find inspiration on how to make them different like you said!
sharp rock
Or for your medieval soldiers
thorny hound
Medieval ones :)

Sending now
I've painted 3 so far but gunna do alot more but want them to have there own thing to them like you was saying about the fish people
sharp rock
Ooo yeah do the shoulder spikey bits
thorny hound
Yeah, I mean I've only been painting for about a week now do you think there a good standard?
Because its hard to see if I'm actually doing good because everyone is so amazing lmao
sharp rock
Yeah looking good! Practice in being neat, it'll come quickly and pays off really quick aswell
But give small accents a little color and you're done imo, thn give the boss with the plume the same color to create squads
thorny hound
Wow yeah that's an amazing idea 🤣idk how I didn't think of that thank you I'll definitely do that and yeah I tried to be as need as possible and I think I've done an okay job on it as there isn't really anything that's gone over where it should be but I'm definitely mindful of being neat!
Neat*

If you got some practice, I would say try out some edge highlighting. Like those models, all those sharp edges on the armor you can place 1 highlight on the edges to make them pop with a lighter metallic
Best of luck
thorny hound
Yeah I'll give it a go and I'll tag you and show you them :)
