Lovely!  Really captures some great emotion with that character.

Do you mean resin? If so, warming the primer tonight!

Dwartist, a stunning work on the skin colour and the camouflage as usual! :)

Can we assume that the piece of resin might be something from a fella living in a cottage full of hobby products? ;)

Only resin is the head and it's a semi not a cottage - but full of hobby products? Yep  :)

Are you going to show some of the other pictures of this guy? I distinctly remember liking the one in which he's facing the lens, but slightly off to the side. Really showed off his excellence even more than this one.

I like the skull and Cadian insignia (?) on the left shoulder guard.
