although I don't personally like human faces on standars, this one is nice... Skin tone is really good, also impressive gold nmm. Only one thing - black background of standar would be a bit strange if the rest of the mini will be in common empire style, wouldn't it? Hmm maybe I'm wrong, but i suggest to take into consideration that..
Anyway, can't wait for more photos of the progress;)

Cheers

Black Standard would be good for Nuln units ;)

And I like the patterns you managed to paint. The painting of the face is good indeed, but I don't like the style in which it was painted too much. Well, matter of personal preference I think...

Don`t listen him ! ! ! :twisted: :roll: :wink: :P

Black colour is good :D but this face...hmmm...it`s strange for me =P This old man looks like some CREAZY GUY and his stare....grrrrr.... :roll:

As a conclusion - i like gold parts ,they are really good.For me black standard this is good idea but you must done better face , more realistic and more normal :P

ok here you have next step. I add few things and change something in his face(specialy for DC:) he don't have such crazy eyes:P also I add some highlights on his face) when I'll finish whole mini I will make better pictures becouse here the face is to light and you can't see good shadows and highlights. Hope you like it;)
