As always ~ great symbiosis of colour. I really love the subtle mottled effect you've achieved on the sword. Very cool! Also, the hint of shaven hair on the back of his head is so realistic! Love it! Again, very subtle, yet extremely effective. And then there's the hints of green on the base around his boots. This is once again another subtle touch that works really well. I get the feeling you put 'soul' into your mini-painting. As in, this is not a deliberate/premeditated approach, but instead a feeling you have as you paint. I hope that makes sense. Hehe ~ your painting continues to mature and grow. Thanks Mr. Arjay!
