Completed Critique Veliti Reali

[megroot]

Well, I call this finished. Not as I wanted, but this is the best I could get out of it.
It is a small conversion of the Imperial Guard 90 mm by Andrea Miniatures.
I whas inspired of a figure I found in a German figure magazine (OOP) done by Ivo Preda with a metal models figure. The colors the flag, I whas intimidated by the work of Ivo.
So after some emails Ivo give me all the information I wanted and I whas looking for. Finally after 4 months I'm done. I build and rebuild the flag 3 times. Then the best flag whas the worst painting.
But this one is holding me up for further projects, so I call it finished.
The pictures are not so good. I took about 50 pictures and these are the best I've got trough PS.
Hopefully they are good enough for some critism, good or bad.

Hey Marc.
Ik vind het gezicht zeker geslaagd. Wat mij stoort is het groen. Dat komt heel fluo over. Dit misschien nog even herbekijken.
Verder zeker geen slecht werk.
Kom eens langs bij ons in Leuven?
Groetjes, Gijs

Gijs, dank je.
Zoals eerder gezegd. De foto's zijn absoluut niet goed. Ze zijn overstraald. Het groen is niet fluo maar lichtgroen.

I like it Mark! Very difficult uniform to paint, colour wise, and you did an excellent job!
I love the ground work! I wish I could do the standard like you did.
Cheers,
