Very nice - the chopper looks sharp!
The subtle rust layer and extreme highlight really makes it work well

Awesome work Norse. The marine sniper goggles has two white marks at the top? Or is that a actual glare as has been varnished with something shiny...
Really good work. The blade is very convincing, I've so far struggled to get a good mirrored surface on test pieces. Hmm I'll keep trying

goggles have a white dot painted on the upper edge, then a few heavy coats of gloss varnish, resulting in a second dot of light caused by overhead spotlight and me not setting up my light box..
