Here he is folks, completely finished! I consider this to be by far my best work yet, and I would like to thank a few people who have helped me along the way BanJo, David Waeselynck, Albert Moretó Font, krom1415, dragonsreach and emopainterguy all are owed special thanks, and of course thank you to everyone who commented and gave me advice on his last incarnation, 118596 I think he is a big improvement thanks to all the advice that I took on board. He is a conversion: I sculpted the trim on his boots and the detail on the soles; I sculpted the shoulder plate on his right arm, and the shoulder of his left arm. It took over a month of hard work to get him right, although there are still things I would like to have improved. I am particularly pleased with the freehanded sea dragon and scratches on the HE shield, and his trousers. The metallics came out pretty well, and I'm pleased with the veins I managed on his hand It was very difficult to get the mountaineater symbol onto his belt too! The gutplates of the Mountaineaters are stone, so the purple things are crystals of course His previous incarnation is hovering at 7.8 average, so I'm hoping that this will be my first 8 (or more)

I look forward to your votes and comments

Thank you, happy painting

~Bill

Love the pants on this one, they are awsome. Sword is nicely rusted. Main thing holding this back from higher is the slightly messy dogtooth (triangles) around the top of the boots.

I hope you win something with it. Anyway you are very young and your mini is so good. Good metallics, but with a more diluited paint the oxyde could look better. Greetings

Note #3 (on Note#1): I meant that I bumped your score up from a 9 because of your age, not too large a gap. Good job though!

Note #1: I bumped up the rating to ten in consideration of your age. Note #2: Sorry for commenting soooo late! I was on a 2 week school trip and couldn't get on CMON. Wow!!! You have improved so much! Now you are definetly better than me ! Its nice to see that you took my advice on washing the red in the wine. The blue skin is really cool and the pants (with the freehand) really caught my eye. Awesome! I really think that you'll get Gold in YB at UK GD this year! Great work, Bill! -Ian
