I like the grey metall, looking enough metallic. But gold is not bright, noo matt. If you would, mey be add some reflexes rom the earth...Freehand simply but cool.

Okay, weaker points first: the NMM on the yellow metals doesn\'t work for me - just too stylised so it doesn\'t look like metal.
I don\'t think the mail looks right at all, although if it\'s intended to look like mithril then it\'s not too bad but mail is pretty dark in reality and you need some dark to emphasise any highlights.
The shading on the gloves looks a bit generic - not enough emphasis of the light direction.
Good points: the boots look better than the gloves. And as other people have said the effect on the sword blade is excellent!
Last thing, I don\'t know if you want to go for realism in a mini but shields were made of wood with a painted covering on the face for future reference
