The model looks even better than 'eavy metal quality, great work!

My only critique is the back of the banner, as it does not match the rest of the model (a bit flat and harsh highlights). Maybe some texture like the tabard would help?

I really like the cold grey of his armour. Is that NMM? If so it is done to an awesome standard. You sir are very talented with the brush.

I love the work you did on the metallic surfaces all around, and the way you low/highlighted your golds is extremely eye-catching.

Epic painting. But you should fill in the papers, otherwise they serve no purpose. Except for toiletpaper maybe.

Thanks. Yeah I agree it looks rough and I dont know why, IRL it looks pretty smooth, think I used to high contrast to make details stand out, it's all much smoother when looking in hand.

I really like the cold grey of his armour. Is that NMM? If so it is done to an awesome standard. You sir are very talented with the brush.

Yes it's NMM, check out my paint blog in the link above to see hwo I painted it.

Great job Tom, I like the pointillist approach on the sword and cloak are very interesting -

I hope I nailed it, was toying with a "hammer beaten blade forged in the warp" approach.

How did you do the sword and the "cape"?
Those look great!

A very, very worn out brush and more patience then I thought I had.

Best Draigo ever. I especially like the cape, and the sword.

Thanks, gimme a vote on him will ya?


Dang, Pyriel. He turned out absolutely awesome!!! Excellent job, man.

Thanks man, should have posted him ages ago but forgot. Next thing will be a dreadknight I think.

Awesome, can I see the finished mini?

Magnificent work! I hate painting NMM silver but after seeing this I may give it another go!

The base is also really well done, good job!

Amazing looking model, it took me a few to realize what you where doing with the sword. After that it brought it all together. Great work with the NMM.
