Klute, why should the horizon line on the thigh armour be horizontal? I have never attempted NMM before, but as the brown is representing a reflection in the chrome, surely it can be anywhere at any angle. If this figure is reflecting a figure standing next to it for example, then there would not be a horizontal horizon type line reflected in it. The lines in the left thigh plate would probably look better if it was not quite symmetrical, reverse it and it would look consistant with the reflection in the right thigh plate. Anyhow, good job and its better than what i could do.
This is very good and easily deserves 8.The chrome stands out really well though the horizon line on the thigh armour should be more horizontal.Tough though on them small areas.A few pure white highlights would shine it up further as well.The shoulder armour is fantastic.
