I like the color choices.

Did you thin your metallic paints with water? They have that slightly grainy look. Also, I'd paint the material (cat litter?) on the base. Also you could stand more pronounced highlighting. Did you dip?

Also, it seems really shiny to me. I'd give it a round of matte varnish, unless you like the glossy look.

Its really grainy, its a great paintjob, but still, really grainy.

Looks much better without the flash from the camera, which always makes every flake of metallic pigment pop right out. Looks really good, alittle more detailing and he's ready to rock.
