Here's my second finished mini this time around and my first attempt at doing NMM. I think it turned out okay, at least on the armour, but feel free to give me your honest opinion and vote

Wow, fantastic Job. I'm new to Warhammer at 52 years old having watched my sons enjoy it over many many many years. As they have returned to it I have been co exed into starting the hobby too and, well it has to Space wolves. I hope I can attain the high standards you and others demonstrate here as although I will play the game"table top standard" just doesn't do it for me and I need each piece to be the best I can achieve.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Old Wolfen.

Thanks Oldwolfen. I know what you mean about wanting to paint every mini to the best of my ability, but I intend to do a unit once in a while where I try to go for speed and adequacy, rather than worrying about every little detail (and getting upset when I can't paint it like I see it in my head).

Nice job mate.

The breastplate is great and I really like the way the front of his hat works. Very nice play of light and shade there. The coat came out nice also.

For me the lining/shading on his hands and the scar on his face looks a little too heavy. The jump to heavy shadow is a little to abrupt.
The nmm on the pistol doesn't match the standard you have on the breastplate (esp. on the barrel).
I like the simple construction of the base, but the paintwork doesn't match with the standard of the figure.

All that said nice job.
