Before
The eyes are definitely too stark.
After
Repainting the armor
First, throw down the basecoats. Sick Green for everything green:
Given how fiddly yellow tends to be, apply White Primer first.
Sun Yellow over the primer.
Shade the green in Biel-Tan Green.
Fix the green basecoat whereever the yellow overlaps using the original color.
Highlight the yellow in Fluorescent Yellow. Not really visible at this point. I contemplated darkening down the yellow, but I wasn't how to start and didn't want to ruin what I accomplished.
Wood and leather
Basecoat in Heavy Brown and Dark Fleshtone.
Agrax Earthshade on everything!
Highlight using the original colors.
The spikes on the weapon were originally painted grey. I left it at that, but highlighted them using Gunmetal.
Face and eyes
Again, start off by basecoating in White Primer, to avoid having to either strip the paint or do 10 layers to cover the eyes.
Follow the - you guessed it! - painting tip.
Hair and beard
Same as the beard of the dwarf cleric: basecoat grey, feather white and black wash.
Highlight black
Follow the - you guessed it! - painting tip.
