    First of all, the photographs are just beautiful. . . the lighting brings forth
    such tension and drama. It is hard to realize that this is just a 54mm figure
    as the detail in your work is so good.

    I wanted to mention next the name plate on your very classy base. It is just
    what is required, very sophisticated and the type faces you selected along
    with that traditional Spartan border really help set the right tone.

    Then you went way over the top with the terrain and foliage, taking a
    chance with a lot of "growing things" around his feet. . . but it works. I am
    envious of your eye for that kind of skill, and wish I could do the same.

    All in all, a really first class presentation. . . with beautiful photographs,

    Wow,

    really well painted. The metals and reds look great. The only thing for me and it might be the photos is that the flesh looks as if it needs more contrast ie. more shadows and highlights.
    Other than that he's a superb looking figure.

    Very nice work.
    As mentioned before, there is not to much contrast, you can do something more.
    The blood is all over the shield, on the sword and his right arm. But his clothing is almost undamaged, as are his legprotectors.
    The groundwork is also without blood.
    So with some simple work, you can get your figure on a higher level.
