I'd trim down the bow on his back, the hand it was originally attached to is still visible

Looks very good from what I can see Ste! Not much advice I can offer there. Smooth putty and realistic folds. Well done mate :yay: Now you have clay shapers you will find sculpting cloth and large flat areas much easier.

I have played with him before. He is useful but obviously no powerhouse.

Nice cloak.

There is a nice video for making cloaks out and about (for 40K) that I liked. Of course every model is different, but as UKFB is saying, smooth is what you are looking for, he probably just throws green stuff in the air and it lands on the model in the form of a smooth flowing cloak, but for the rest of us he is giving good advice.

I really like Elven Warrior's Capatain of the citadel guard conversion.. as i have about three 2nd hand figures without a spear too and have been wondering how best to get value from them.

A captain, General or champion would suit that figure so very well.
