My last miniature. In the pictures eyes seem big and I'm not happy about the corporal hair. Other tan that, my usual crappy level :D

Looks fine to me! Splendid work :-*

I like the greys and browns you used. Very fitting for the character and nice brushwork!

hairy arms..like it.

Photographs of painted miniatures are unforgiving. So are painters of their own work. Looks damn good in the photo, and I assume the actual miniature is much smaller.

Really like thats, so much better than my effort with that model.

Is that the old Mithril figure? It's a lovely piece of work you've posted there. I always thought Mithril were beautiful sculpts, but I found them hellishly hard to paint. Yours, on the other hand, is a masterpiece!

VERY WELL DONE! It certainly looks like you got the most out of a Cool mini.
While a certain level of humility is becoming in an artist, don't be too hard on your work; re, folks with lesser abilities find such comments disheartening. I was brought down a peg or too for doing just that myself.

Nice work!
Would you mind sharing how you did paint the hair on his arms and chest!?! I love that effect!

Sure! I began with a slightly greenish brown (brown was similar to the middle tone of flesh shadows). I painted thin stripes in the sense that the hair grows and then I darken the mix and painted even thinner stripes. Use always watered down paint so it blends a little and doesn't stand out too much (wouldn't look natural).
*Mitch K: Yes, it's one of the two models Mithril released way back in the 90's or so. Not the crispest sculpts but they do have certain charm to them.
*DeafNala : I'm a perfectionist and I can't help it. Following Van Gogh's saying, I do not finish miniatures, I just abandom them because every time I look at them I see things I could improve or are not good enough. on the bright side, it helps me to improve my painting, or at least try to.
Thanks for the nice comments!
