Don't know if it's the camera, but it looks like the white on the DA's heads needs to be thinned down a bit.  It's a pain in the arse, but when doing white over black, you need to thin the white down a touch and do it in a ton of layers to get a nice even white.  Other than that they look great.  Nice start!

its not the camera, i tried to drybrush the helmets.
but when i water  down white, small bubbles appear on it and settle on the mini looking horrible.
looking from range the look much better.
thanks for comments

I'd recommend trying the Vallejo paint line then.  Their Dead White is great and is a perfect consistency and won't bubble up when you dropper it out on a palette.

I buy mine from a local hobby shop that carries GW stuff along with a plethora of other gaming stuff.  Some arts and crafts stores carry it too.  Unfortunately their website doesn't have a list of stores that carry their product, but you can contact some of their distributors.
