    Hey, bro. You... you are the man.

    I think he should be a bit shinier but this still rules. Really love what you did with the eyes.

    I started this planning on a tutorial but got caught up and didn't take a lot of the latter pictures needed. Here's a bit of what I was doing...

    looks great for sure, but think a gloss coat would make him look more metallic and less stone...

    Looked like Games Workshop Codex Grey, probably with a worked up drybrushing of White or Wolf Grey (?).

    Agreed this figure has absolutely awesome texturing.
    I can only pray the the Takara version will be better paint wise.

    I think your paint job really brings out just how good the base figure's mold
    really is.
