This one has been in the works for about 2 months. I finally got it finished up last night.

This summer I took a few months off from painting. When I started up again, I wanted to do something that would force me to concentrate mostly on technique without having to worry about color schemes. So I picked this figure with the intention of trying to get it to look like the version that was done by the Rackham artists. In the end, I changed a few things about the color scheme, but for the most part it is pretty close. I decided to forgo the freehand on the offhand sword.

For those of you who feel inclined, this is up on CoolMiniOrNot (http://www.coolminiornot.com/138568)

Without further ado, I present Nérak le Hardi.

Really well done Flynn - have to admit, got a tickle out of the blackened toenail.

heh...it's what I do with my mid-nor dwarves. Pilzenbihr (http://www.coolminiornot.com/72485) has one as well.

I noticed the toenails, but didn't say anything since I figured it had something to do with a game or something. Does it mean something specific or is it one of those inside joke things?

I love this model, great paint job and the metal looks really good. Seems like its glinting in the sun. Love it.
