The blue spot colour works well against the red.

It's an odd thing to say for a Khorne model, but it does seem almost too red! I don't think the Skullcrushers are quite as impressive as some of the other models you've painted recently, and it's probably the overwhelming redness that's the reason why. I think it would make a massive difference to pick out the skulls in that last one in bone colour - it's a big strange that they're red. Also, if you feel you can justify the time for it, then picking out the gouges in the red armour in silver, as well as the pistons, plus painting the Juggernaut's teeth silver would really help. The face of the mount is one of the first things you notice, and having a mouthful of sharp teeth that clearly stand out really changes the first impression of a model.
Sorry, I don't like to post what feels like criticism in someone's hobby thread, so I tried to include suggestions of small changes that would make a big difference - I just don't feel that the Skullcrushers are up to the standard of the excellent beastmen you've been painting recently.

Haha, I do share some of those thoughts, maybe too much red. Hey, don't feel bad mate, I'll take whatever comments you have with good spirit, and gladly take in whatever you think could improve the painting, i appreciate it. They are a bit red, and I've gone back to edge highlight some silver over the gold - they're honestly not that red in real life though, for some reason it really comes out very red in the pictures. Mephiston red is probably too red, though. I usually start my armour in Khorne red, and wadzaka it up a bit. Cheers for the feedback. I wonder if I paint the top leg bits black (the shoulder pads for example) it might break up the red?

Yes, I think the black / red contrast would make a difference. It's the problem with having fully armoured riders on a steed that's pretty much all armour - you end up with too much of one colour.
