Description : This was my entry in the Warlord small single figure category at the ReaperCon painting contest last weekend. I started it two nights before the contest, and finished it with about an hour to spare.

Even though there were a couple of mold lines on this figure that I hadn't cleaned properly, and the fact that the highlights on the armour got flattened considerably when I applied the dullcoat, I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out. I'll probably go back and touch up a few things on this (including the base) once I unpack my paints.

The most difficult parts of this mini for me were the swords. I spent several hours on those alone, and nearly tossed this mini against a wall at one point.

Poll results:
Number 9 overall.
Second Place: one vote
Third Place: 2 votes

Really nice clean work on the grean and the gold. The flesh looks good too. The only thing I could add is that the steel armor/weapons look a little flat. But you mentioned you have trouble with that so no worries. Great job though.

Very nice and smooth paintjob. Maybe the steel NMM is too grey? Not metallic enough? And the face is too unnatural for me. But I am trying to nitpick...

howdy - I always like the feel of your minis. I can't put my finger on it, but it is tone I guess. peace

Really nice mini the gold NMM is good as is most of the iron NMM only problem is the shoulder plates could maybe do with being highlighted up further.
