You have the new paints then? And they aren't any good? They should've stuck to the old paints :(

no, i just had to replace that wash
so far my experience of the new ones is a pretty rubbish one
it makes things come out all glossy and shiny :sad:

Painting, conversions, greenstuff... you are insanely good at all the stuff I am bad at, SidTheSloth! I especially like the Uruk-hai crossbowmen. And I really look forward to see some Galadhrim, as I hopefully myself will be painting some soon.

Really like the bases you have for the Rohirrim. You should apply the same to the Uruk's or something similar so they are finished. 8)

Gollum sneaks up on Sam and Frodo:

Gollum/Smeagol is one of my favourite models so I took a very long time to paint him.
i tried to capture his pallid complexion by basing him a greyish colour and then working up to a pale skin tone

thanks for looking :-D
C&C welcomed

Excellent, all of it. :D

Aragorn's and Gimli's faces do look very good, as suspected, I presume you used the old paints on them :)

Gollum looks amazing, what did you use for the water effects? His skin is well done too :yay: Twas woth the effort.

Thanks, Gothmog :D

I actually used just average PVA glue topped with plastic glue
it manages to make it all shiney
here's some pics of some more water I've done:

its a really cool effect and it really adds to bases

Great painting, and I love the water. I'll have to try that trick now!

Post subject:  Re: SidTheSloth's WIP :-D (update 30/6)

Thanks Sid, PVa glue, and a drop of plastic glue, that sounds quite doable. Cheers. 8)

It works well on your other bases too. :)

Author:  SidTheSloth [ Sat Jun 30, 2012 3:09 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: SidTheSloth's WIP :-D (update 30/6)

the two cavalry bases i did with plasic glue and gollums one I did with both
you may need to do some testing as sometimes the PVA comes out a bit cloudy

Author:  GothmogtheWerewolf [ Sat Jun 30, 2012 3:13 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: SidTheSloth's WIP :-D (update 30/6)

I see, I always test on an old model I don't bother with anymore, or in this case, on one my many spare bases.

These look great Sid.... I envy you're talent on painting faces :) Aragorn and Gimli look superb. The Uruk's look top notch aswell :) I see what you mean on the X Bow conversions, they look pretty nifty :D Look pretty doable aswell. May have to pinch the idea :P

Keep the work coming!!!
