German Ork Warboss

Hunh... wondering if I should just start a single thread? Maybe that's what I'll do next time. Anyway this was a MaxMini head on a Dragon Forge base with Secret Weapon shell casings. I undid about two layers of highlights in some spots as it looked OTT to me and fought what I was going for with the dark and gritty look. Now... I wish I had left them in. Spent a lot of time on the metals on this mini as well. Please fire away any crit's you wish!

and a close up of the klaw...

Great work, esp on the metallics

Yes! I'm really loving your style, gritty earthy colors....and now spanky metals!

My only crit would be that the eyes could use just a bit more highlight. They look a bit dull.

Great painting on a cool mini... Metal work is outstanding and I like the skin but I think the clothes are too close to the skin colour but it may be the photo flattening them.

Thanks guys! Squidders, yep the colours are a bit close. I decided I wanted to stick to the WWII colours (Or at least what my Flames of War painting charts tell me are the WWII colours) and it's not very contrasty I think. I did buy some Mexican themed Ork Heads which I look forward to doing up bright and zany style! Ayone know of some 32mm guitars so I can Mariachi these orks up?
