Thats pretty good! Is that one of those Panthro head casts from eBay? The Matty figures are 6" and the Bandai are 8" so maybe the head is a bit too small?

Looking cool, makes me want to get my team finished off and do a Lynxo.

A few tips I can offer, if you don't mind, would be when painting try to use a few thin coats, so you don't get an uneven surface or brush strokes. Also hit the figure with a semi-gloss coat when done, to protect your paint and give a nice factory look. I would also open up the joints a bit to prevent paint rub. you can do it with a scalpel on areas like the shoulders. Taking of a millimetre of plastic will mean you can repose without taking any paint away with the movement. Speaking of posing, I wouldn't repose for at least a few days after painting to give the paint a chance to set up fully.

Yeah, there is a lot of trial and error. It's all good fun though. Looking forward to what you put together next.
