A bit of sanding. The gloss black shows some scratchs so a bit more polishing but happy with the outcome so far

Looking lightyears better though already for real. Very nice work. I’m glad you stuck with it.

March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
