Salvaged Stormsurge - needing some ideas!

Hey all,

I’m trying to headcannon and kitbash a salvaged mech unit, probably use 30k solar aux, but whatever. I’ve painted this guy in the 2 colours I like, hit it with streaking grime, removed an amount I thought looks cool, and added some typhus corrosion here and there. Ignore any bright white spots, just spots I accidentally hit and are waiting to be grimed.

I really like it so far, but it feels really flat? Do I need a pop of colour, or maybe a little gore? Not sure where to go with this, any advice is welcome!

Edit to add: maybe some osl around the plasma coils?

Bit further along with my DV / Revenant army.

DC - DEATH COMPANY OOPS*

What should I do about eye lenses? Same orangey red, or a different colour? Wanting to keep a very limited palette, but I’d like some more visual interest.

The squad so far!

I only just learned you can use a graphite block (6b I think) to work the edges, giving a cool worn weathered look. I’m trying to get all of my army up to this point, so I can be more efficient painting them. Happy so far! C&C welcome!

I wasn’t vibing with the little cage, pretty happy with this instead.

Sarcophagus alternative and chain sword were 3d printed, the rest is stock. PM me if you want links to files!

Lost Dante’s jump pack…

So bashed one together using HH and old SG bits. My question is, does this look overkill/goofy, and not in a good way haha.
