The banner work is simply amazing. If I can ask, what does the banner say? (Or is it illegible?) As a second question, you claim this is SE-NMM. NMM is non metallic metallic, but what does the SE mean?

The lighting is throwing me, if I'm being honest. It doesn't look like he's being lit from a single defined angle, and it also doesn't look like he's being it from out-and-above like halo lighting. It kind of seems like he's being lit from the four corners of the base, like he is literally standing in a giant display case.

It also seems like the right shoulder pad is begging for something. You've got a blank shoulder pad with a blank nameplate on it. Is that an intentional artistic choice? I'm not recognizing the chapter off the top of my head, but that just might be ignorance on my part.

The icy blue isn't working for me, but there isn't anything wrong with it on a technical level. The paint job, shading, and coloration is all spot on, it's just doesn't fit in with the main color scheme of the armor, to my eye.

Your base is great. Is he removable from it, or is he purely a display piece? You obviously have a great degree of practice with basing. I also really like the leather skirt, you did a great job of capturing the look of distressed leather. I half expect it the loincloth to creak when you pick him up!

In any event, good luck on your ebay auction. I hope someone pays you a bunch of money for him.

The banner does not say any message, its to small to read i just paint in cursive, rather ten a squigly line, it looks better that way.
SE- is Sky-Earth, its when NMM reflects sky and earth, mostly with a horizon line, but it's not a rule, especially on the round objects where the hirizon line is almost always straight with a roudness.
As for the bare shoulder plates i wanted as much parts to be just golden and nothing else. And as for the nameplate i think its more like a service or marksman stud, maybe there should be something egraved.
This is no particular chapter it's generic, just golden, and as for the icy blue, maybe its to striking.
The base is detachable so You can easily bash Your enemies and then rest in the display case
Thanks for the comments.

It's Awesome as usual, but.... Why a sgt? I mean, if you're going to do a one off piece then why not a Captain? Or even a Character? Just a thought!

Need more 's in my life!

I like the model and the paint job, just not a fan of the colouring used. But a great job none the less, i can appriciate the time, effort and skill that must have taken

great looking mini, but I think the base is too tall, and it could swamp him a little.
