Six inch sweetness!
Gentlemen, I can assure you that this figure looks even more impressive hands-on.
Awesome as can be.

WOW! Most impressive work! Love that you have sculpted over the joints and made a maquette. The paint work is just stunning, such realism in the face, I am in awe. Thanks for sharing.

That is amazing!  In many ways, your technique looks similar to Hemble's work, especially smoothing out the joints and sculpting over to hide them.  How much of a wash---if any---do you apply to your figures? I'd think the detailing would be next to impossible without it, but seeing your work, I'm beginning to think you could achieve it without using them at all.  Really, terrific work all-around...

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Wow... So good. I was thinking "HembleCreations" as well. This is the stuff that makes me want to keep customizing. I had no idea this kinda thing was even going on until a few months ago...so amazed by the talent here.

Another amazing custom mate the tones in your paint apps are perfect and the pose is very life like and the dio is so realistic it just blends in so well together as it was meant to be that way.

With the technics you do, did or do you do military model figures by any chance.

I can't say anything that hasn't been said already.   That's some beautiful detailing.

Well,Thanks to all of you,i´m very glad you like my way of painting

to answer your questions:
No,i generally don´t use washes on my Figures,i paint everything in the so-called "Overhead-lighting Method" with Acrylics and any highlights or shadows are painted.i use washes only on rifles,backpacks,etc.i also use the Airbrush extensively
@hemble:yes i did Military dios and figures,i still do but not as much as i used to.i do build planes,mostly "Top Gun" Aggressors

i ´m sorry that it took so long to answer your questions...
