The base is 20x20 as far as i know but you could stand him on a base that you like anytime!Roman aka jarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620077720130753226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-73983617498462213272011-07-06T21:49:57.244+02:002011-07-06T21:49:57.244+02:00Well done.

Some more highlights on the face, the lights on the swords, other hair colour and red/violet lights in the face... and the pigments.. :D<br /><br />Some of this problems I could solve I think. I hope you can see it on the last picture. <br /><br />Overall thanks for the tips, your opinion helps to see things/mistakes, which I don't see at first, when I was looking on the mini, during the painting process :)<br /><br />Best regards, OliOli aka HonourGuardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13554550591275525598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-74656349179599246472010-08-01T14:08:21.018+02:002010-08-01T14:08:21.018+02:00I like him a lot but I have to agree concerning th...I like him a lot but I have to agree concerning the colour of the beard and the hair. Black hair would have been the better choice or red hair for example. Another point are the highlights on the blades, because I think they are much to dark. Look the highlights at his skin are already brighter than the reflections on the metal (which should have to most depth). But apart from that minor points he turned out really great, good job :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-62287382894307105742010-07-31T14:06:29.441+02:002010-07-31T14:06:29.441+02:00Very beautiful mini.

The beard could use some lighter colours i suppose, but really it all looks amazing! :D<br /><br />I am also very curious as to where you bought all these minis for 2 euro a piece!? a mini that is sculpted that well for only 2 euro is a great deal i dont want to miss :PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-39928798769421824122010-07-31T11:49:38.769+02:002010-07-31T11:49:38.769+02:00Hey Oli, that guy is fantastic, love your intense ...Hey Oli, that guy is fantastic, love your intense work with light overall especially on the muscles... the detail is impressive, the knees simply stunning, the blades also and i like the colour choice of yours a lot... BUT... somehow even with the chances i lost the face in all that glory sorrounding it. I guess it is the beard's colour that won't bring it out like it could. your contrast in the face is very strong so you could go with a really kinda pure of white hair or even a really dark hair to set a frame around his face to set it into focus...<br /><br />Just my thoughts, not sure if i am right with these but if you want you could give it a try...<br /><br />Keep on happy painting!<br />Regards<br />RomanRoman aka jarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12620077720130753226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-10693340869596152342010-07-30T18:36:57.922+02:002010-07-30T18:36:57.922+02:00Yeah, well done, Oli!

Would have underlined the wonderful light you've set at the rest of the skin. <br /><br />Only thing I don't like at all are those skulls. You used the pigments a little to wild. Don't know if it works at all at such a small size. Maybe you can remove a little of it.<br /><br />Looking forward what will come next!!The Maxicannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-4155040057813254652010-07-30T17:30:30.907+02:002010-07-30T17:30:30.907+02:00Nice painting Oli , I like it :)Nice painting Oli , I like it :)Andrea aka MXPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860347633793678738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669705958656495659.post-65912782509807926282010-07-30T17:25:16.209+02:002010-07-30T17:25:16.209+02:00Very very nice, i really like him.
