I agree. Specifically the blending and shading in his blue "cloak" (real technical terms I know) and his skin tones are incredible.  One tihng I noticed--may be intentional or lighting or just since the helmet is shadowing his face, but his face looks far darker than his skin.  I know it should look this way to a point since the helmet is more or less completely shadowing him, but it still looked really dark.  Just my 2 cents.  Looks great!  Are you planning on adding that olive tree you sculpted?

Ian, I agree with what your sayin' but there is hardly any flesh on show within the helmet, only his eyelids, and the tips of his cheeks.

The tree, maybe a little too big for the surface area of the base.

Thanks.
