Gorgeous color, excellent treatment of the fur-detail. Sometimes those older minis have areas of nice sharp detail right next to some mushier bits, making painting difficult. Hooves are great - face is outstanding.
Thanks for the kind words, guys! Ghola, it's true and Andrew Chernak figs can have those qualities (hands looking like merely an afterthought for instance). I think the abs on this fig count as a mushy bit but the fur detail, hair and especially the face make it a true winner.
Oh, and sorry I botched the botched layout on the blog today... damn misplaced div tag in my post. Fixed. :/
Wow, that really puts mine to shame! Looks great!
ReplyDeleteReally, really nice paint work on that!
