Wicked start to a nice piece mate.

[housecarl]

A bit more done. I don't know what to do with the webbing, as it looks flat. I always have difficulty shading and highlighting vertical surfaces. Also I think I'll have to re-do the tartan arm patch, as I think the pattern should be on an angle. I've also added a wound strip, service chevrons and a wedding ring, as I wanted to depict him as a more mature Old Contemptable out since Mons.
Carl.
