I think it looks great! Nice material definition all around. Especially like the worn soles and the winter washed helmet!

Think its easy to over-do these busts but this ones spot on
skin/flesh handled well and the way the white wash has chipped of the helmet is different to the usual way of feathering the paint Over all very nice!

Johan,

The soles of the boots; wood grain; eyes - extraordinary!

Excellent all around, but the eyes are especially well done.

Stellar work Johan- the flesh tones are brilliant and the eyes are superbly painted- the look you have given him really sets this figure off nicely. I must also congratulate you on your depiction of leather- the boots and the webbing straps are done to perfection. Thanks for sharing this!
