Fabrizio,
I have no advice for you. This is extremely well painted.
Wish my figures looks like yours.
You want to improve......I think you are a master allready, so you ask them when they see the figure in live.

Congratulations Fabricio, the piece is painted in a really nice and beautiful.
Maybe even add some lights up on the head of the dragon, but I must say that I find your piece very interesting.
I also enjoy the pictorial representation on the shield

Delightful, delicate painting techniques here Fabricio which is most inspirational.
Get a sense colours are faux metals without metallics - is this correct?

As a suggestion perhaps consider how you can add a little grime & dirt to the figures clothing.
Shield is well weathered, however this is an element that could be carried through into the trousers\leggings & tunic.
Trust this helps you develop your modelling skills.

Please share more of your work, keen to see what you next work on.

Stay safe,
Mike
 
Fantastic figure indeed I'd maybe just pick out one or two highlights on the standard to make it show as more metallic and as the others have said a little bit of weathering to match the shield (y) I always feel a bit embarrassed commenting on figures that are better than mine but you did ask :LOL:

Great looking figure Fabrício, I like how the whole thing ties together. Particularly like how you've tackled the lighting on most of the figure.

The bronze is an attractive colour but (in the photos at least) it doesn't look very metallic.

The shield is very attractively done but the leading edges around the top are very light, I think a little more attention paid to the upwards-facing portions - the flat edges - would look more authentic, rather than a painted effect (and more in keeping with how the lighting is simulated on the skin and fabric areas). Also on the shield, it's doubtful that a combat shield would last long enough to build up that amount of dirtying up - this is regularly overdone in the hobby and it's something I think we should all take a fresh look at.

Not sure about the head of the standard, it's really nicely painting and looks good but I'm left not knowing what material it's intended to represent.

Wonderful work!! Greg DiFranco taught me to use a bit of gloss on faux-metallics as a finishing touch. Not a high gloss, but just enough to add a sparkle in light. This adds to the realism.

Simply stunning Fabrício .
I'd like you recipe for the metals on the "dragon's head"?
Thanks,
Carl.(y)
Hi Cral(y)

For painting this part i have used yellow clear(tamya) as base, before sepia ink, brown ink, green ink, violet ink(all valejjo). For the lights i have used old gold(valejjo), and for the lest high lights i aded mitrhil silver(citadel)

This is fantastic. So much so that it's inspired me to order this figure for myself.

Not that I'll be able to reach this level of mind-boggling excellence, but I'll certainly be using yours as a template when the time comes to paint it.

Thanks for sharing. Great job!!

Absolutely nothing that can be critisised here. The painting is superb on a subject that is close to my heart. I wish I could paint like you Fabricio. Well done indeed Sir.
