Very nice pieces there Naoned. The blending on all three are well done, and the photography is so clean that if gives you a good look at the models.

I really have nothing to say about the biopsiste model- the blending looks beautiful, the color scheme is well done, and the base adds to the figure.

On the Gandalf and Saruman figure, there\'s a few things that bug me. First off, while the paint jobs on the figures are nice, they just aren\'t as good as the other two you\'ve posted. This fact holds true especially on the Saruman model- the blending from the lavender to white on the robes isn\'t as well done as the blendings from gray to white on the Gandalf, and the gold work on Saruman\'s robes just seems a bit sloppy. Saruman\'s skin also seems like it was done very quickly, in relation to the rest of the detail in the picture. My other criticism on the piece is the shield on the wall in the background- the red seems flat and out of place in the entire scene (only use of a bright, flat red, and it draws the viewers attention). The grail is off-center as well, which I noticed almost immediately. All this being said, it is still a wonderful piece- the blending job on Gandalf is subtle and superb, and there is some very nice freehand on that globe- certainly better than what I could accomplish.

My only complaint on the last piece, Velrys is that the the model is too small in the photographs- perhaps a close up of the model itself so we can better appreciate the work that\'s been done? It looks superb, and is my favorite out of the three- the blending on the cape is absolutely amazing, and looks to be actual cloth. The column also really adds to the piece as a whole, adding a nice atmosphere.

Great works overall.

Velrys is my favourite here, the basing is very atmospheric and complements the miniature very well

Cheers
