Looking for any feedback - it’s my first painted miniature, still learning the ropes B)
As for handle - it sits better in my hand than citadel manufactured ones 🙈

nice smooth applications for your first mini! As youll be applying some shades soon I expect, use pictures like this where you've placed a light over the mini about where you imagine a light would be shining on them to help inform you of where to put your wash paints.
For example - his facial expression is really brought out by shadows under his cheekbone, lip, inside his mouth, and in the hollows of his eyes. It feels a bit silly to do, but taking a picture of the miniature your painting right now and then looking at it can be a great tool
Also, you will be able to sell the sheer size and impracticality of his huge arm by having it cast a deep shadow over his whole right side and the area of the arm under the finger-claws.

Thats how I am going to end with this one probably

Awesome work! Was the highlight color you used for the skin a little hard to control?

Generally yea, but I also miss smaller brush (my smalles one used for painting was 1/0) and I had some hard time getting good movements with it. I also wanted the orc to have some kind of blemish, thats why there are also some dabs besides just edge highlights 😛
Ill probably get some better photos today for #1118193285819813960 🙂

Your first ever painted mini a character? I respect it
