When I painted this I just kept thinking "I would have been grateful for the job at his age."   ;)

Probably just me but the blacklining work looks a little too prominent on this mini than on your others mate. I think its the hairline and labcoat/shirt that are the offending items, but hell wadda I know!

Nice clean piece.... but keeps reminding me of the studio line logo colours!  lol

That's the crispest blacklining I've ever seen, although I agree with Vyper that it's a little too prominent in places.

Thanks for the comments.

Blacklining is "strong" on this one.  More of a cartoony look intended, and I needed something quite stark around the ID badge to make it "pop" so the rest of the lining followed that.

The hair is meant to be dyed (I refuse to say "coloured" as the phrase "They've dyed their hair to buggery" won't roll of the tongue as easily if you change the word.)

It's just meant to make viewers smile.   :)
