Far over The Misty Mountains Cold - First Dwarf Archer painted

So, after a few hours of painting, I've finished the first archer! Overall I'm quiet happy with the painting job, although I hate how the plume came out, so I might paint it over using another collor. But, as I don't want to keep you waiting, I've got the pictures here:

 from the back

 another one from the back

From the front.

I hope you like him as much as I do. But what do you think about the feather? should I repaint it in some other collor, and which one? Also I'd like to know what you think of adding snow and coal to the bases.

Yours sincerely,

Rowan
