Me again ......

between Finishing my two previous WIPs and preping my next two i decided to have a crack at this....

i'm trying to just paint it and enjoy the process rather than really go mad on it! i've done somewhere in the region of 15 hours so far on it, hope to finish it in a couple more days.

the stripes on the pants are awfull but not enough to re-do

a really nice sculpt to paint but frankly a bit of a pig to clean-up ( or i'm just rubbish at white metal )

all done in Vallejo and GW acrylics as usual, i'm pleased-ish with the sheild. ish

And i noticed this is my 100th post on MM. oh dear

Fantastic. A great job all round, and the way in which you've managed the skin tones and pick out the muscles is particularly eyecatching.

Wow, incredible, everything about him, the skin tones, the wood, a masterpiece if I may say so.

Adam! .... Thanks! it's a pretty nice figure and i wanted to do a fun piece for a change
 
Keith ... thank you
 
Ian ..... Cheers
 
Tom ... Thanks again
 
Smithy ... thanks and your works great! keep painting!
 
Marc ... thank you
 
Steve ... thanks, the sculpt is outstanding and a pleasure to paint
 
Ted ... thanks and your too kind
 

 
Update ....

have done a few more layers of shading on the body to try and warm it up a bit ( that red shield seems to draw the other colours out ) and worked the hair, top lip and some of the metal work ( all metalics are painted with non metalics ). also been worrying at the stripes on the pants... happy with progress so far but still a fair bit to do especially on the body

thanks for the input everyone
