Didn't get a chance to take WIP's of this one. The face was fun, and only took about 45 minutes. The gold... considerably longer.

Lovely work there. The effort you put into the golds show. The blue detailing on the sword caught my eye, cool little detail there.

Amazing mini overall!

Thanks for sharing, as ever your work is fantastic

Thanks! As ever, feel free to ask questions on what I did where, and I'll answer as best as I can.

Just awesome! How exactly did you do the gold?

Vmc chocolate brown base, layer up with vma bronze. Agrax earth shade wash in recesses, layer up with vmc bronze, vmc old gold, vma gold for extremes with some spots of vma aluminium. It's pretty simple deliberately as there may be follow up pieces which will need to match.

Outstanding. The purple on the armour is lovely, and the gold is amazing.
