Thanks for the comments all, I appreciate it.
Soju: The eyes aren't too bad from what I can tell, and on that note for individual soldier figures, Im not gonna go to too much of an effort to make sure that they are perfect, when I will be painting 100 + solidier figures. As for the brown colors, the halberd haft is an experiment with colors. I "highlighted" persay in the fact that I applied a lighter color over a darker basecoate, leaving that dark color in some areas of it. Im still not sure exactly what color I should do them in though, and will be researching what others have done soon.
Van Der Steegh: Heh, good point about the Averland colors actually, as it really is a toss-up for me at this point on what color scheme to go with and that one is one that I've been thinking about. Either Talabheim, Averland or Nordland, still haven't decided 100% and I think I will paint up a figure in the other 2 schemes to see what I like best.
Von Breden: Im not sure how I can shade the face anymore since I started from a dark basecoat. For characters and figures that show a bit more skin I will pay more attention to those areas for better shading though. And with that dang Halberd shaft, Im still working on a color scheme, so once I get that one decided upon, I will work on making it look like wood grain and such. O and though not evident through the picture, but I plan on having the figures painted to a much higher than table-top standard, since I have left that level of painting years ago, heh.
Just a note, this figure was painted a little hastly to get the pictures up here as soon as I could for feedback, hence the lack of some highlighting (such as the hair, that just a single basecoat of that color).
Thanks again for the comments, more test figures to come!
