I am pretty new in the figure painting genre of our hobby, previously painting just a few Warhammer figures, but I really loved doing this 75mm figure. Built as a present for my friend's birthday, with whom we train and compete in archery together.

That's superb - very clean finish and I love the colour choices. The blue of the cloak flows wonderfully. Is the gold on the cloak NMM? And if not, how did you shade it? And (if you'll permit me a small criticism) the very ends of her hair at the back seem to have been missed - or is that intentional?
Lovely job. Female skin tone is excellent. Figures can be great fun to paint.
Wow. I'd be pretty pleased with myself if I could achieve anything like this!!

Very impressive figure and painting.
Thank you everybody!
She wanted for her to have darker tips so I used dark brown.
Gold as NMM? It's a gold paint, not that technique where you use different colours to imitate the metallic colours (not sure how this technique is called). The tips of the hair are my daughters idea

NMM = non-metallic metal - the technique you referred to. And I should've guessed the brown hair was intentional - my bad. It all looks very good, excellent job!Thank you everybody!

Beautifully painted Seb. I'm sure your friend will really appreciate such a unique present.

You could have fooled me Seb. She is wonderful.
If I count, this is my 7th figure and I did the first 5 together (Warhammer 40K) and then another classic Warhammer figure. I can post those as well. Figure painting was one of my Covid lockdown projects as I wanted to try something new and get better at paint brushing.
