Surely someone has something constructive or critical to say?

feel free to be harsh... you can't possibly hurt my feelings!

I like it ^_^

I can understand the red face mask for contrast but I would have gone with a cold colour instead just to tie the theme together (maybe purple :?)

I agree a cold color would look better, but he is the leader of the "red skull commandos" so I went with the fluff on it. Its a test model tho, so I could go less bright also : )

Add some snow effects on his boots, trousers and mask, should tie the base in with the mini a little better. It is very hard to make orks work on ice worlds, they don't dress for it and the popular greens clash. The orks on ice I have seen that look good had significant snow weathering on them.

Looks good. Although I'd have to disagree with the mask comments - he is an Ork after all. Even orkses with low cunning have no taste in cammyflague.

I agree that snow sticking to the edges of clothes would look great.

If your greenstuff-fu is good enough, how about a wolf fur cape or something? Also, how about adding something at the front of the base, its' a big empty space atm. Even a few drops of blood, it could even make the red mask fit in a little better. Otherwise great job!

Or, if you want to keep the Red Skull theme, how about repainting the mask a blue, purple or black and giving him a red skull painted/tattoo'ed on his arm to keep the fluff?

The eyes on the mask are mesmerizing.

I agree that his gear should be frosty. Being a commando, and also Snikrot, I'd assume he would revel in staying in the frigid cold to snatch some poor guardsman on post.
