I could have sworn I had an account here, but I guess I only lurked casually for the past year or so.

Anyway, I've been painting up the Battle at Skull pass off and on for about a year. I guess the correct way to say this would be that I've painted 10 goblin spears and then this troll. This is the first model I've done after, about, a six month break, give or take a few months. It's pretty sloppy, not quite completed, and needs some touching up and detailing but I figured I'd ask for C&C sooner rather than later.

I only managed to get one good shot of him (I don't have my picture box set up, so I'm holding him for better angle) but I'll add a second back shot because I really want some recommendations on hair color. The green I chose is awful.



Incoming broccoli hair:



Any C&C is welcome and greatly appreciated. Tips, techniques, critiques, etc.

Quick Edit: Yeah, the white balance and brightness is all sorts of goofed in the second picture. That's the result of having to hold it up without my picture box set up.

Welcome to dakka dakka!
That troll is great, but as you say the green hair is letting it down. Maybe paint it a different shade of blue than the troll skin, probably darker, otherwise it's awesome.

Guilliman and the Ultramarines are like Manchester United, everyone hates them because they are so awesome!
