Captain Cortez of the Crimson Fists
This is the 20th-or-so mini I painted since I started splatting colors on these little fellas and the first mini I painted for an auction, and not just for tabletop gameplay. Drilling the gun and launching some random flock on the base was quick and easy, but painting the mini took a couple of days. I absolutely don't know how to shade, glaze, higlight and so on (hey, I just started after all!), but I tried putting some darker and/or lighter lines where the light was supposed to fall and reflect. I also had some fun while blacklining the eagle on the left shoulderpad, the fingers and the Fist icons on the character's chest and backpack - I also blacklined the claws on the powerfist, but it didn't came out that good, heh. Be harsh, be rude, be whatever you want to be, but please post comments, I think I badly need some advice :)
