This was for a commission. I'd change some stuff like the blade and colour of the hilt for sure if left up to me. Fire away!

This is badass, where's this mini from?! Liking the blacks, really well done for such a tricky colour to work with. Only thing that keeps bringing back my attention is that nipple. It looks more like a skin coloured nub! Bit of a darker pigment would nail it there.

Good point about the nipple. It's a Tale of War mini. They have some AWESOME mini's in their range. The black is a tip I got from Steve Buddle and I used dwarf flesh to mix in with the black for highlights. I also didn't start from a pure black, but some VMC grey-green mixed in as well. Ty Mitch!

Oh man, that is a nice miniature!

First off, you need a better camera angle. Feels like I'm spying on him from a tree.

But, the skin tones are fantastic, the hair looks good, and i just love that base.

The metallic sword is a bit flat.

Dwarf flesh you say , eh? I'll need to give this a go! Usually I use blues or grays depending on the look I want, never reckoned on using that! Turned out really nice though. Cheers for the tip man!

WTF is up with this thread? I'm pretty sure someone has hacked CMON, as all my socres appear to be a full point (or more) lower than they should be! JK, but seriously, what's the score here?

Really lush skin tones, and that sword looks damn fine. Unless I'm seeing something weird, it looks like you got some patteren welding designs in there!?!!
