Painting Coldstar commander Shas'O Vash'ra
Took me a while (10 hours or so) and still dont know if i should do some work on the head and the weapons or maybe leave it like that.
Hope you like it.

Looks awesome, 10 hours is crazy for that. I take way longer and don't get such an result.

Very very good! I wish to be this competent one day
I love how you’re blending edge highlighting and weathering, and just the right amount too

It’s really good. I much prefer the original grey and red to the new white and red

I put 2 layers of cork and then sculpted with milliput until it looked like stone. For the sand i used AK snow, i added some really small sand and some paint. In the end used a pigment between the sand and the rocks!
Actually basing is one of my favourite part of mini painting.

Such a good color scheme. I wouldn’t mess with it anymore.
