Hi! Nice figure, but you must write a description!

Beautiful mini! I thought the metallics were...well...metallics! Excellent contrast everywhere except the skin tones seem a bit flat. However, when painting skin tones on females and children (the cherubs), low contrast is often appropriate, and the model still looks very fitting. Great work!

Very good use of a limited palette on this model. The gold armor looks really good, especially on the halo. All those angles must've been challenging to work with. The non-armored areas on the model look a bit flat in comparison to the rest, most notably the face/cherub skin. They look good, but they could use some more careful shading and tinting to fit the atmosphere of the figure. I look forward to seeing more of your stuff in the coming months :-)

I love the armour! Both the colour and the way you painted a soft shine (I, too, thought it was real metallics at first.) The freehand is also a great job. I think the upper folds of the red need more highlighting, and the skin of the cherubs looks kind of rough in the back view.

I think that this model is turned down by the bad lighting! I really like your base, gives extra points to the overall look of the model, the armor is again top notch but the reds could do with some more highlighting and I will agree with Wren on the cherubs! Really great job!

The pic is far too dark to do this justice I think... The armor is really well done! And that bomb shell is spot on. Not sure about that flesh though...
