WIP Critique Myrmillo

[jimias]

Robert my friend, the blue really gave me a hard time. Well you re right about the blue. The camera adds some kind of intensity that makes it look like electric blue. The same goes for the white parts as they are looking overexposed. Hopefully when this is done i ll take some better pics. As you suggested i m planning on placing the helmet on the left corner, and that is why the figure is a bit off center on the base. Like you i thought that it would serve the scenario where he take off his helmet to deliver the killing hit. We ll see how that works.
Ken thank you for your kind words. The truth is that blue is still one of those colors that i think a lot before using them on a figure. Glad to hear that it worked well here.
