Hi Tin-Bucket, he looks nice & neat :good:
The cloak looks to be coming on okay, I'm not sure about the placement of the white highlight though. I have trouble with large areas like this myself
I'd suggest being bold & putting far more of the mid blue on, Enchanted?, leaving the dark blue in the shady areas only. Shadow Grey & Space Wolf Grey can be useful stop off points for your layers before white too.
In particular, those three creases running down the middle of his back, meet & then it goes straight back to dark blue underneath them. The mid blue can join the three up at the bottom, all the way to the hem of the cloak. In the photo there's a strong shadow running to the right of the fold over, so you can use that as reference for where to paint the mid-blue to the right of it. Definitely be bold & try to save the white highlight for smaller spots.
The armour looks fun but I agree that a couple of dark purple glazes over him, followed by highlighting up through the silvers (Boltgun, Chainmail, Mithril), then glazing again, possibly with reds to bring out the pink tones. You've chosen a tricky path using real metals. I'd have been tempted to paint his armour space marine style
Good man, embrace the challenge :applause:
I hate this mini but people seem to do great things with it.
Right then, you can carry on now!
Cheers, B.
