Quite possibly the best paint job i've seen in the last year or so.I really love the colours,it looks almost cell shaded comic book style.Thank you for posting this.

**Jimsolo**

First off, thank you for identifying it as a commission piece. I appreciate that.

Secondly, DAY-UMN! This piece is epic! How much can someone expect to pay for work like this?

Seriously, your lighting and shading is all well done without being overdone. Your color palette is well connected, varied, and doesn't step on its own toes. Your action pose looks more like action and less like a pose. And your basing is phenomenal! Just great work.

Is this a game miniature? Warhammer Fantasy? Is the base the standard size, or is this a showpiece only?

Its a Stonehorn for the Ogre Kingdoms faction in Warhammer Fantasy

And I agree with you, absolutely the best Stonehorn I have ever seen. Well done

**Requiem**

Worth every second of those 120hours! Epic paintjob!

**ssspectre**

The whole model's awesome, but the base is something really special.

**thesilverback**

Totally and Wickly Awesome, Great job.

**Snrub**

Yep. Definitely one of the best paintjobs i've seen. Those obsidian horns are beautiful.

**Eggs**

That is a tasty, tasty model. Loving everything about it. Love ogre kingdoms, and that is how they should look!

**dkellyj**

10 years of practice and developing news skillz. Trying new techniques and paints and applications.
And now i feel like a Noob.
LOL
Exceptional job sir. Your talent is top knotch.

**DemetriDominov**

It's so good it almost looks drawn, not painted.

**SickSix**

Incredible. One of the best paint jobs I've ever seen. And the surely maybe the best on such a large figure.

**nerdfest09**

The head on that stonehorn is by FAR the best i've seen! expression and colours are truly inspiring, the eyes bring it though! man that's good!

**squall018**

Slow clap...

**tyrannosaurus**

This is the Mona Lisa of stonehorns

**Stormsung**

Mother of god...

**Stormphoenix**

That is absolutely incredible. I can't fault it at all. Something to aspire to

**Elmir**

That's a very unique style you have man. It just draws the viewer in.... It's nice to see models that break from the norm like this and have such good excecution...

Hats of to you dear sir!

**KingCracker**

"Holy gak" is what I said when I saw your work. That is simply incredible. I think my fave would be how the fur came out on it, it looks like you spent time on every single piece of fur on it

**Debbin**

Simply breath taking.

**cheiflibrarian**

I couldn't own a model that well painted because I would cry for WEEKS!!!! if I broke it

**Eiríkr**

Lord.

**spincr**

I'm not sure what to say. I don't think i can say anything. Its just amazing.

**Debbin**

Holy gak, just saw were you said no airbrushing involved!! That goes from breath taking to holy gak batman!!

**Element206**

golden demon worthy.....just phoenomenal!

**chrisyella**

No airbrush

Your brush control is phenomenal!

Looking forward to seeing more of your commissions, thanks for sharing!

**We7**

Updated. Fur scheme in first post.

**em_en_oh_pee**

Speechless.

**Orkitron5000**

Truly amazing. I wish my painting were half as good. I'd settle for 1/10th.

**Breotan**

Amazing work. I could spent 120 hours and never get anywhere close to what you've done here.
