hello everyone,

my name is Harold and i,m new to this forum, i,ve been painting for a long time but after a whyle i kinda stoped with the gaming hobby , i lost interest in gaming.
but the painting itch never realy went away and 3 years back i started painting again on a relative steady pase (i never was the fastest in the lot )

its usualy not that it takes me long to do a mini but the time i have to do it is limited usualy i try to paint an hour every day but most of the time its more like 4 hours of real painting per week.
the picture below is a miniature i,m currently working on and its at the level i,m currentluy stuck on for years without any serius improvement

i,m quite pleased with it but the real problem is consistancy the next one can be utter rubish
have a look at the introduction section of the forum an look for Dutchy there is the latesd miniature i finished there you can see what i mean.

any hits tips critism is welcome

greets

Harold

sorry for any spelling errors

NMM on the iron hand looks really good and you are right, the paint consistency could be a more thinner.
the gold NMM doesn`t quite look like gold and I don`t know how to change it
I like the face

Hi,

Nice commissar, the only thing i think of is to blend the colors with glazes, that way you will have smoother colors and transitions, give a read at Mahon tutorial is very good.

The face and hand both are very cool.
