Finally finished off the Norn Emissary a little while ago. Definitely my biggest project yet.

That looks incredible! I love your color scheme and you did such a good job edge highlighting the carapace! I also really like the non-edge gray highlights they look great. I always struggle with the carapace on my own bugs
Thank you! Purple is such a fun color to work with. The newer models have such great detail on the carapace. I tried a few different approaches but found just a simple bright grey dry brush always ended up looking better than anything else I tried.
