I agree. The pose is great and the paint job works. I would like to see the model from a few more angles. Maybe one from the side with the shield and one from the sword side. The base looks o.k. but I would paint the edge with a lighter green then the rest of the basing materials. Hope this helps... keep up the good paint work.
This is a very nice mini. The base is a little simple but overall I like the look of it. My only gripe is with the sword. The view isnt clear enough. I have a feeling if you get a side shot of the sword your score will go up to a 7-7.5 easily. Keep up the good work =)
