This was a slog! Started this mini in May and never had much time to spend with the brushes over the summer so very relieved to finally have her over the finish line! I might come back later and smooth out some gradients and push the edges a bit on the hair and armour as I hope to enter her in a local painting competition late this year.

Cheers,
Oskar

Very nice!

This, my guy, is artistry in its highest fashion!! The blade, cloth, and hair are very inspirational and clean!! I agree, maybe a little more edging. But maybe not. It's very crisp. The basing is beautiful. Maybe a piece of wood for a nice deep brown for all that yellow?

Very impressive, great job! I love how the cloth looks like it is flowing.

Thanks Nevelon, this was the mini I entered in May’s Dakka painting competition, but failed to finish, so was about time!

Cheers,
Oskar

Thanks Gost_engineer for your kind comments! I will certainly try to find something additional for the basing.

Have you found a piece of dark brown?! I still find myself looking at this astounded! So smooth!

Thanks, not had time to revisit the base yet, started working on an Exarch instead (will post once completed). Hope to soup up her base once I get closer to the upcoming competition in late November
