Absolutely amazing work of course, but I had a comment on the armor.
anyway, great work!
Excellent work! Do you think a gobo light to break up the specular highlights on his armor, and cast varied shadows, might work? --Also, perhaps his hair could cast a bit more shadow across his forehead?
Great work!
It’s too blurry on the sides of the nose, and right under the hair at the forehead, and as mentioned earlier, he’s a little too clean for a warrior, add some blood and dirt on his face.
aside from the fact that your work is AMAZING(i love the elf piece you’ve just finished), i just couldnt stop crackin up at the posts by that ‘Herbert-such-n-such’ guy on pg 13 i think it was. LMAOOL(laughing my ass off out loud) for too long!
Thankyou for the pearls of knowledge in your cgsociety tutorial and the last post you placed. Im sure they will really help me along to honing my art 
Best wishes from the south!
I clearly said constructive criticism is fine. What Im talking about is "Oh sthat shadow shouldnt be there, the blah blah looks blah blah. And on it goes. The kind of flaws that exist in real photographs. Like I said constructive crit is fine. I was merely pointing out people want to be the first to point to a flaw, they point out the bad, then say, yeah but its good. It shows a mindset when you point out the negative first. And I see it a lot here. You could post a photo, pass it off as your 3D work and there would be a multitude of people queuing up to tell you why its just not quite got that realism. Merely an oservation, Im not personally attacking anyone, so dont get so upset, take a few valium or something and go have a sit down, breathe…paper bag might help. And the maturing comments. Please! Youd think I just insulted your mother or something. Get off that high horse mate!!
I’m just wondering… where do I get the tutorial! :bounce: Just kidding… This image is so amazing, I’m beside myself.
Great Work Max

now …where can i complain???, umm…yeah…i got one…
1.its too too too realistic man…;), …:-O,
perfect work mate…, someday , i might become one like u…
You did an excellent job, a very powerful image. thanks for sharing some of your workflow tips in your tutorial - a huge help.
To all of you making the comments on the chainmail: That is not completely correct about how chainmail is made - that is but “one” method of many. Chainmail is also made as Max Kor did it, with the slice in one part and bent back together after looping it in.
D,
Someone stole this piece of artwork and used the clonestamp tool very horribly to desetroy the features, then posted it on Conceptart.org claiming it is his own original piece of work.
Just thought you might like to add your thoughts.
Here is the thread 
Good luck!
