This was a commission for a friend; just table top standard, and the base isn't yet complete. I just wanted to throw some quick photos up and see some feedback.

Per my website, this is a standard which I now offer to the general public. Anyway, I think this scheme works well, and the model really lends itself to simple techniques. Enjoy!

I like the painting, but I believe the parchment on the armor should be more of a tan. Other than that, its nice, and I really like that you're neither ashamed of your table top standard being offered, and that you don't half-*** it.

Thanks again. I normally only do showpiece, or competition level pieces, but I had some requests for "quick-and-dirty." I found customers to be appreciative of the apparent quality vs. time with this standard, so I added it to my menu.

The parchment should be darker, but I tried to go by the rules of a very basic color scheme. 3 main colors, and a couple of splashes. Parchment colors + white, and I'm opening too many bottles for table top standard. :D
