The heraldry on the flag and shield are beautifully done. White never look so good. Excellent work all around. My only super tiny nitpick would be the helm. Perhaps a wee bit more contrast such as a touch more highlights and some pin washes on the bolts would bring out the metal work to the level of your lovely work done on the shin guards.

Since you asked for no mercy...I don't care for the snow that much. Everything else, however, is excellent.

Amazing piece of work Gustavo. Can't really pinpoint anything in need of improvement. Don't care much for the snow though.

Excellent paintwork on this figure. The heraldry is painted great and very detailed. My only critique would be, which is mentioned before, that the helmet could use some extra contrast. Especially where the metal parts crosses and the nails.
I have the same figure in the cupboard and would be happy if mine would look as good as this one.

Marcel.

How did I miss this one... great work. The heraldry is magnificent, particularly on the shield and it has a great "feel" of fabric. You painted it all by hand I guess?

I would echo the comments on the snow, but everything else is absolutelly stunning.

Hi Friends:
Thanks for your words, the feedback with the others modellers is the real "fuel" to improve and try to do better jobs every day .
About the helmet, yes i see , really , i was afraid for "damage" he polish work, and was yellow in the shading. (sorry for the "tarzan" explanation,my english is poor).
About the snow, ok perhaps this sound funny or cheating, i´m involved in the hobby since 1982, belived it or not , this is my second attemp to do snow, (ok, more homework )

Thanks Again for your comments and critics.

Ps: Yes Maki, the shield was painted free-hand.

Hudson and Allen Studios make a good snow. Also, in the Michael Roberts vignette kit, "The Scouts" there is a packet of crystaline product that makes a good scale snow.

Hi Gustavo, you've done a great job on this stunning piece. I would add some more shadows and maybe a bit damage to the helmet.
Thanks for sharing.
