Couple of newb painting questions

[el Superbeasto]

It definitely looks so, but I frankly can't really tell due to the blurred images. Could be really good, could be less so. From what I can see, it can't be completely crap.
And no, 2nd ed plastics don't have much in the way of detail, and hence they are quite easy to do a decent paint job on, but quite hard to do a good paint job on.

It looks good (as far as I can tell from the photo).

You could still pick out more highlights - I've found that I always need to highlight more than I think I do for the model to look at it's best at "gaming distance". If you do overdo the highlighting then another wash of the appropriate colour will bring it back down.

Great start!

I plan to do more highlights when I do details in another session soon. I may give up on these and start my elf team instead though as much more detail to have fun with
If I do more I'll take proper pics with a camera rather than phone and see what you guys think!

Thanks for comments so far, least no-one has told me to burn my brushes and throw the paint away... yet!
