Be sure you don't offense me by commenting my miniatures. I'm ever happy when I recieve some comment ;-) The cartoon effect on some of my miniatures is absolutly wanted. I play with the most part of theme, i don't paint in the way to win a golden daemon, but to have fun with some miniatures game. And so, having cheracters with marked faces and blacklining give a good masse effect, as you can see with the units of soldiers pictures I posted (in my opinion). But you're right, I have to try to post some pieces i painted by taking more time to give my minis a best realistic and "nuance" effects.
Clean painting. I hope you dont take offence, but it looks cartoony. I think it might need more shading, definately on the skin. And thin down the blacklining alittle.
