Dark Emissary

I've wanted to paint this mini since he came out, and finally got one :) . The main thing here is just the experiment with adding the chequered pattern to the back of his cloak amongst the spirals - I was curious to see if it would look busy, but I think it works ok. Also a lot of very muted greyed colours as well as the richer blue and red, but they were just little experiments with bones and greys that aren't really worth a whole comment. One thing I did like though is the colour of the wood - it's quite greeny due to being base with brown + green and highlighted with a yellowy-cream colour.

Rachel, Very nice indeed. The blues look like denim, very cool :) I like the checks, but not sure if the blurriness of the reds on the left is intentional. Also, not keen on the NMM shield, reminds of one of those hard candies. But still a great job!
