I have painted a lot of space marines over the years. Judging from the contents of the boxes in my room, I will be painting many more! What have I learnt painting these and what would I change if I did it again?

Some time ago I was talking to someone in a shop who was planning to take up figure painting. I mentioned Black Inking as a useful technique and he admitted he didn’t know what it was. Looking at some photos of figures a friend of mine did it was obvious he had not Black Inked them. Seems there are quite a few model painters out there that do not Black Ink their models. This is rather a shame since Black Inking is a very effective but simple technique to add to your repertory.
In the last week, egged on my friends on [url=http://wamp-forum.com/]WaMP[/url] and [url=http://twitter.com/KeeperOfTheHDB]Twitter[/url] I have photographically documented the fabled Lead Hoard of Keeper! :) It is rather pic-heavy, so I'll just post up the links to the two parts of the write-up on my website.
Does anyone have a Left Hand Tyranid Warrior Large Size Scything Talon that they would be willing to part with?
Doing a little surfing and came across this site

which has some rather nice conversions of Necromunda Redemptionists into Witch Hunter Zealots.
