Stunning mate. Have a great New Year and see you in May. Hardy

Nice to see this finished Roberto. Looks great and I'm sure it looks even better in the flesh.

One thing about your photos, is the white balance correct? They look like they have a yellow cast (e.g. the scabbard is brown, not grey) but without knowing the original colours it's hard to be sure.

You're camera seems to be doing fine

If you have Photoshop or Photoshop Elements I can take you through a simple one-step correction for this kind of colour cast, using Levels. It only works well if there's something neutral in the photo, so if the figure doesn't have any pure white or a decent grey on it you can place something within the frame (leaning up against the front of the display base would do it).

Some more pics under natural light

This one:

Looks great.

Not that the rest of the figure is disappointing or anything but this figure has a great face.
