Hi, have seen all you other pics this year, I am not really sure if you like to make progress. You did a great work on the (mini's) left arm and it's skin-tone is much above tabletop qualitiy. But if you would a little more black/brownlining and smoother transitions, it would catapult you rating as well the impression of your minis. The is a lot room of interpretation when it comes to the pickles and the fur, using more than two colours can improve the mini a lot. The left ear's and the right arm's blending is awful bad, as the two dots on the forehead. Sorry for saying so, don't shoot the messenger. Maybe, if any applied, you might use an other varnish, which wouldn't etch the colour.
But keep always having fun.
