Until I had it independently verified, I couldn't quite believe that this was a model that someone had painted. It's just perfect, especially the face. The really amazing things to me are the level of detail, especially on the armor and face, and the subtle yet effective shading. The battle scarring on the armor is believable, and the shadows and light really make this stand out. This is definitely the kind of painting that makes me want to work harder to get my stuff looking better.
