There's no knocking the skill of application but it doesn't look nearly dark and depressing enough to be Death Watch.

The chains look a bit like Christmas decorations and the chapter symbols are far too bold.The black could do with being a bit less grey and there seems to be a bit too much (very bright) red.

Extremely well painted (especially the freehand and the windows) but the composition doesn't fit the dour nature of the Death Watch to me.

I don't play Warhammer, and don't know anything about the Death Watch, but the white chains and red and green badges and and bright red painted areas do give the vehicle a very Christmas-y feel.

I agree with Insomniac on the skill of the modeler and painter. It's very impressive work.

I painted a Death Watch Thunderhawk for my army. Its not nearly as well painted as this one on a technical level, but it is basically red, black, and steel colored with some details painted other colors. I agree that this one, while well painted, is too glitzy for Deathwatch.

Agree, it's even got a red nose….

Death Watch Brother Nicholas, Santa Claus of the Sanctus Reach.

Technically good, thematically terrible.

Insomniac hit the nail on the head, GonerGonerGoner drove it deep into the wood.
