As my first coolminiornot submission, I have used my namesake Inquisitor. I have attempted to create a natural look for Avicenna by using a limited colour palette, but without taking away from the authority of this figure.

excellent face, and a nice conversion (although quite similar to Jules'...) can't wait to get some of your exploits together with Sorax and all others involved on the cooperative!!

It's a good =][= scale paintjob but with an excellent face! Congratulations on it. The overall paintjob is 1 step behind the face - I wish the whole miniwas detailed and highlighted so well. But isn't it a bit too glossy?

I think (hope) that its just the photo creating the grainy yet glossy look to the model. But yes, it does have a slightly gloss/satin finish (GW 'Purity Seal') - I think a can (?) of Testors may well be a worthwhile investment! THX to all of you who have taken time out to comment!

The face is excellent and very lifelike, but some of the aspects of the rest of the miniature are a bit of a let down. It seems to have a grainy aspect to it, but that could be the picture. The speckled/glossy nature to the red part of the coat on his legs are disappointing. I recommend a coat of a dullcoat/matte varnish -- the Testors Dullcoat is perfect.

Great paint job! Spray it again with a couple of matt finishes and I'd give it a 9!

thanks all! Jenova - I am just learning the art of miniature photography, so I understand where you are coming from To the Almighty hive - it is GW static grass...! But glued it on before spraying the model black. From there I drybrushed it dark green and went progressively lighter to achieve desired effect.

I think this might be a 9 but the pic is a little "funny". The face is awesome and the gem work is very neat

Well done. The face looks especially realistic. The main picture is a little over lighted but still the shading and highlighting look great. Congrats on your first post, to me it looks like a winner.
