Completed Critique Australian Light Horsemen Palestine 1917

G'day everyone,
Well he he is. My first completed figure in 3 years (there abouts).
Sculpted by Phil Walden and will be produced by me under the Arms Corps Models banner in about 4 weeks. Web site info to follow.
The base colours were Vallejo, then highlighted and shadowed with oils. I used Mig pigments to try and get a very dusty look.
I'm not happy with the eyes and may go back and redo them.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Cheers Jason Miller

Jas.,mate your saying, your not happy with the eyes...try killing back white, by pinking up a cream colour and pinking a wee darker the top of the bottom lid, also a touch of brown cream [ using Vandyke Brown in the cream ] just a hairs breath of VB., in the corners of each eye...just a thought..
..Phil..

Nice work Jason, particularly for a turret head who hasn't done a figure in 3 years. You've certainly captured the look of the LH trooper and you got the kangaroo feathers looking just right. I'd agree with Phil's suggestions about the eyes. A touch of red in the inside corners of each eye will help.
