ok i will try to comment basing on CMON photos
you gotther about 5.9 score wich mean "nice Table top"
this is due to base wich is "regiment base"
ok bnack to painting :
you got ther an evil mix of supus to be black mix with red - bouth colors nasty to paint
you got that clean but not enught contrasting - contrast betwen Red end dark blue is nice but that not what build the hi tech feel of this mini - so if i woud like to improve this 1 i would create clean end bright highlights on edhes of arm plates end all atrificial muscules
end about Red - well is red
another thing are his crema pants - they arent shaded nor highlighted in a way that would show how strong contrast is on all material folds
Hair - will not coment - gotthis mini on my desk .. end is another tentacle ...
blade i know that is futore sf blade so it is glowing - but atthis case it is flat color iven if you add ther edges that will not do - it reqire as usual much more contrast
from what i recal this model whas set on Daka Daka infinity contest - look at winers - how contrasting they are betwen light end shadows - thats why some realy nice work like Yuan Yuan havent make the cut - they wer flat same your's Saito Togan
- i havent participated in that due to lack of time
things to improve in the future :
BASES !! (that will increse over all score greatly )
Contrast betwen light end shadows
end lastly - color selection (look at Jenifer Halley work - they are monohromatic yet she score a wining spots - somtimes less means more )
so dont iven dear to discurade - start new mini post progres in WIP section end we will try to guide you
