Just finished this little guy (seriously, these clam shell plastics are probably the best idea GW has had since I got into the hobby). Any suggestions welcome!
Looks great, I love the armour and sword. The only thing would nit-pick on is the back of the cape. It dosnt look as smooth as the rest of the model?
It looks pretty good, nice work! The base looks like it needs finishing, but the rest is cool. I agree that the clam packs are pretty nice, GW really is getting very clever with their plastic kits.
Different colour on the edge to start - brown or grey maybe. For the top, it might be that its just the angle if you are asking what needs to be done. To me it just looks like it has either been painted as is, or there is a thin layer of sand. Like I said, could be just the photo angle and the fact he fills most of the base, but looks like there could be a bit more detail in it.
