I used this Space Marine to dip my toes into working with Golden's SoFlat paints. They were a real joy to work with, though the amount of color mixing I had to do was a big adjustment.
The sword took me several tries before I got it looking alright. This was also my first time attempting NMM gold on anything much bigger than a belt buckle. I think it turned out pretty decent, but could push the value higher in the highlights and blend it a lot better.
