| I just finished my warduke, I tried to give to the armor the apparence of being reflecting the environmental light...just an experiment...I putted a lot of attention to the gem and the skin tone

| | You definetely pulled off the appearance of reflecting. I really did think it was doing that until you actually pointed it out. Kudos and good job man. I definetely like your Warduke a lot. | |

| | The figure looks amazing! The base needs a bit of work. It looks like your talent has reached the point in painting where you could really take your figs to the next level with proper basing. I sadly haven't reached that point [:(] | |

| Other people have commented on the metal which is truly excellent. However, you also did an excellent job shading and highlighting the skin.
At this point, I think the easiest way for you to achieve dramatic improvement would be to work on improving basing. (Unfortunately, for my part, I don't think working on basing will yield dramatic improvement anymore, so I need to work on actually learning how to paint like you, Runelord, and Temperance). | |

I can assure you, first try ever (I'm now entering my 19 months since I began painting minis, and I "learned" something about NMM 'bout 1 year ago, and about SENMM about 1 month ago...(but I will work harder on that, I like both those tecniques)
Thanks to all!!!

| | I still cant get over the sword really. Even the helm with the little bit of blue. I think its a fantastic job and would love to see more minis with that kind of effect. It was definitely well done. | |
