nice and neat but i feel the blue armour altho smooth is rather flat. some more highlights and shading would give it much more of an impact. The gold and the purity seals are done really well and the colour composition is good but again i feel most of the model could do with a lot more contrast even across the cloth etc. But it is really neatly painted so you're on the right track !

Like arctica said some more contrast would definately help the model to look more interesting especially on his armor. But overall a nice gaming mini. I like the red on his cloak(?) thingy - nice and warm color tone u got there. :) One other thing, his eyes look a bit lost and are barely visible. Try to make the red more visible. Right now it looks a bit like it is just a red dot in there. Also some OSL around the eyes might help to make him more interesting and "catchy".

I fully agree with guys about the armor - too flat.
On the positive, the base is nice and I like the dirt you did on his legs :)
