Thanks for the praise guys, glad you like it! I'm wrapping this up now, did some final touches and put it on the base yesterday. Going to take a last look this weekend and see if there's anything important I have missed. Took a quick few pictures of the 99,9% finished model yesterday, unfortunately it was too big for my lightbox and I've ruined or lost all my backgrounds while moving. So these are just some quick work to show it off, I'll try to set up a better solution before I give it away next week.

Great work, it's a clear level up for you!!
Nitpicking this piece is not an easy task but while looking at the metal (looks a bit matt from this side of the monitor)... Could you have missed painting two little metal pieces on the couple of leather straps around Conan's wrist? (on the arm that holds the girl's legs)

Thanks folks! Maenas, they have been painted, but they might have lost some shine after I matted the model. I did a round to reshine, leaving some pieces more matte intentionally, but I'll check again if I missed some.

I have to agree with BAM. Whoever gets this piece is going to be very lucky. You did an outstanding job and it was fun seeing it come together, Oistene! I'm looking forward to seeing what your next project will be. Walking Dead can't be too far away now I bet :)

Thanks a bunch guys, you make me blush. This piece was intended to be a birthday gift for one of my best friends and fellow Conan Exile players - Hence the title plate, that's her usual clan name and an in-joke. Also, I wanted to push and apply the new things Roman taught me this summer, no point in doing shitty work. :)

And Krule, you got it wrong - that's Ken. Barbie is obviously the barbarian. :D

With the Barbarian in the box (literary speaking), it is time for something new. I did a quick job during the weekend, which is nearly finished, but I forgot to take pictures, so I'll share that later. For now, I've started work on my Infinity figure, the boy has let me throw paint at his Kylo Ren.

A friend of mine is one of the best cosplayers in the region, and she has done a cosplay of Kylo, so I picked her brain a little. I almost regret it... I know so much about the materials and textures in that costume now. I started a little to make the appearance of fabric in the sleeves, that looks pretty good, but the cape is another story. It is some kind of coarse knit heavy wool... AND it has 'a sheen to it', which I'm not yet sure how I'll represent. So I guess I have to take my sweet time and paint the texture...

The amount of patience and precision this is going to take is truly impressive! It is already looking awesome and I can't wait to see this when you finish it!
