Welcome to the forums too and keep posting those pics,great stuff.
About the marine,
I think if you remove the freehand then the figure would rate a 7-8. The red armour looks pretty flat and the pic doesn\'t show a lot of detail and is a bit dark.
Fortunately you seem to be a whizz with freehand and the close ups of that show well and lifts this figure well above an 8 for me.I gave you 10 just for the cape alone.
I think the rating will settle about 8.5 to 9 though.
Keep them coming.
