I've had this Avatars of War Dwarf for a long time. Now I'm normally not a dwarf lover. I generally dislike all elves and dwarves, but the Avatars of War dwarves I do like. They are very nice looking miniatures, and heavily muscled.

I experimented greatly with the fleshtones, actually using a purple paint wash for everything in the shadows.

In hindsight, I should have used a different color for the cloth, too close to the goblin.

I think the red hair worked out pretty good. The bronze metallics got a good weathering, that is about 5 shades of different colors highlighted with a gold.
I also like how the goblin head came out.

It`s very god. You have painted well lights and shadows. There is somthing I miss, it`s a point of bright and darker shadows in gems. It is easy and gives a nice effect. It is not a bad idea to use gloss varnish (only in gems).

I like it, god job!

It looks like your miniature have the same problem with left eye as mine. I was very upset when found this issue.

Very nice Berserker. Like the shiny gold. The skin tone is well defining. Just the jewels could be shinier, but thats my own taste.

Thanks guys. Yea, I'm not very good with gems, don't enjoy painting them very much.

Ah you noticed the hair. I like tweaking things just a little to make them slightly different. This way he uses less hair spray.
