This is an amazing paint job and your basing skills are great, too. It looks very realistic and has just the right amount of shine to it in all the right places. The blending is excellent, the metals are just fantastic, and the contrast is really nice while still looking natural. The only thing that had me rate it a 9 instead of a 10 was the parts where the pieces went together still having a really obvious gap (most notably where the neck connects to the body). It really just stops the flow of your gorgeous paint job. Otherwise this is a magnificent paint job and it really accentuates the sculpt beautifully.
