Corsair Command

I spent a lot of time on these minis. The sea dragon cloaks took a very long time to paint. I painted them in a basecoat of dark angels green, highlighted wit scaly green, a 50%-50% mix of scaly green and jade green, and then a final touch of jade green. The inside of the cloak, I gave a basecoat of bestial brown, and shaded it down to pure black. Do you think it was worth it? I think the cloaks look all right, but was wondering what you guys (and gals) think. Since the banner could not be seen very well in the big picture, I added an extra picture of it. Unfortunately it was after I used purity seal, so it's a bit shiny. How do you like the freehand design? I found the rune on the internet and thought it looked pretty cool. Something I'm not quite sure of is the horn the musician is holding, I painted it white and then washed with brown until I was satisfied with the look of it. Be sure to let me know what you think... Thanks in advance for all votes and comments!

Nice work on the cloaks. The banner looks nice as well (is nice the right word for dark elves). I agree about the boot tho. Maybe a wash of dark bron to make them look more like leather or perhaps paint them black but all in all a nice command group. The unit must look spectacular.
