That's a buch folks. The washes did help alot, I think just the highlighting needed now. But as the fleshs is basically Elf Flesh, any idea's on the highlight?

Looking better now. :)

I suggest a few thin washes of snakebite on the muscles (but not in the shade areas) then highlight (with dwarf flesh, then elf, as they should be darker than dwarf flesh after the washes).

Well I cocked up on him this time, it wasn't working and I think the way things were going the paint would look too thick. So he's now being stripped in a small pot of nail polish remover. I'll hopefully start again on Monday (busy Sunday).

Will do, I now also have tanned flesh so I can maybe get a better transition from dark to light flesh tones. Hopefully.

Today I try to strip paint from my big Exorcist tank. Full painted by myself. But I was in a hurry and it doesnt look so pretty as I want too. So after one year of playing with him I will to make some renovation to this expensive as hell model
