I painted this for a competition. What do y'all think?

Looks good and looks better on a square base!

OMG cool.

I'm using him for a treeman ancient with my woodelves

Purty schweet. I don't know the LotR line...is this how the fig comes, or did you convert this?

No converting done. I don't have the patience for it.

Very good job! Simple and subtle yet powerful. How did you paint the wood to look so waxy?

I didn't try to make him look waxy. It may be a combo of the flash and the GW wash, that tends to be shiny.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments. I don't plan on winning this competition. I've seen a few of the other entries. But I can only get better so again thanks y'all.

Nicely painted. I have never cared much for this model, but you did a great job with it. Bravo!

@Zinderneuf: thanks. That's great to know.

Super excited! Tomorrow is the paint competition. While I know that I won't get first place (I've seen my friends planned entry) I do plan on getting at least honorable mention or sucks the least. I'll let y'all know later.

I like it! looks very "real". I hope you were happy with your placement.
