some parts tricked me into thinking you used real metallics on them and NMM on others :)

No real metalics for me. Just a preference I guess.

I like the NMM work on the front side of the model. I think the back side could use more contrast, particularly on the axes.

It's looking good but i feel your Grey NMM is much like mine, requiring more other colour and contrast. I'd recommend trying to glaze over some of the grey areas in a blue or purple colour and then darken some of the shaded areas and highlighting some of the edges where the light picks up, up to pure white. I think that would give you a more convincing grey nmm. As Mahon said, the gold in particular is very convincing and sneaky :D good stuff.

skin on face has some red tones to it. will you paint the rest of his body like that?

how do you want to follow the winter theme? snow base?

I was going for psycho red faced dwarf. :D I do feel I need to add some purple glaze to the face.

As for the base I am going to add the typical snow/ice thing.. I am going to try adding in ice covered plants but I need some time to try out some ideas I have been only thinking about.

The only remark i do is about the horn, i think its too simple and dosent fit with the rest, some shadows or drawings would look great other than that i like the red "rage" face dwarf :clap:

I was shooting for red faced psycho dwarf. Added some purple to the face deepened the shadows on the back, abdomen and face. I fixed up the NMM on the back of the fig.

Not sure what I am going to do with the horn.
