Thanks No Such Agency! That's exactly the effect I was going for; he looked kinda gladitorial to me, and thus would have beaten up and worn armor. Glad I managed it... now just gotta practice skin tone blending (=
The photo is quite close and fuzzy but I rather like the effect on the metal - like it's dusty in all the seams and crevices. Or maybe gilded but then worn so often the gold has rubbed off most of it.
