Hmm. The NMM, to my eye, looks less metallic than it should. I _think_ it's a question of using briighter highlights to take the colors from "grey" and "brown" into the realm of "silver" and "gold." This paint job still totally deserves an 8 though. Nice.
barkel, obviously you don't know anything about REAL fighting. It's the famous - expose my soft belly and groin area defense.
The idea is to have them lodge their weapon in your midriff, so you can bash them about the face and neck before you expire.
Geeez man, don't you know anything? Great paintjob though. Nice and creamy.
