Cool pattern ! The only thing I can think to add is to maybe bring your lighter color up to eye ? Maybe try to set it off more somehow ?

Cool! I love picture 10, that's my favorite angle. I've always wanted to pick this kit up. The scale's just a bit too big for my current space lol

Yes, maybe a lighter color to make the darker toned eye more noticeable...just my two cents. :)

I do agree with Blade. That's what I would have done.

Yeah lighter eyes would work as well..though that's usually harder and why I didn't mention it. lol ;D

Great colouration, love the pose it really gives the impression of a dynamic animal and this replica for me, reinforces the idea that such a powerful creature, walked on its tip-toes (digitgrade stance).  The point about highlighting a bit more colour contrast around the eyes made in a previous comments makes sense, I can see their point, but apart from that I think the paint job is excellent.
