A bit of a real life update. 2 April was the wedding which meant that Faramir and Eowyn had their day together on top of a rather tasty cake.

And as if the time couldn't be any better whilst away I found an independent gaming store with a small stock of oop lotr figures including the older Halbarad model that I much prefer to the grey company version. The unfurling of Aragorn's standard at the battle of Pelennor fields is a favourite lotr moment of mine so I'm rather pleased to be able to include Halbarad in my Pf themed force.

I was tidying my desk and realised I had completely forgotten about Celeborn since coming back from holiday and so set to work on him again.

He looks nice. What's the broken off looking thing in his hand?

Nice painting 8)

Garmenhord: I believe that's where his shield attaches to, he maybe painting it separately.

The painting on Celeborn is outstanding. I think you have achieved your aim of improving this year. I love your style - very realistic. Your Boromir in the painting competition is awesome also. :yay: :yay:

Thanks. Being on one-ring has really helped keep me motivated and, in the case of the monthly competitions, push myself to improve.

looks v. nice... rookie question but i'm finding it hard to decide whether you used NMM or just used metalics...

Author:  Minimal Monkey Saddle [ Sun May 22, 2011 9:18 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: MMS's Rohan wip

I used nmm. On reflection I think the shield needs a little more work as it's looking quite flat in comparison to the rest of the armour.

Well i'm quite impressed with the natural NMM look you got going, tbh i though it was NMM but didn't want to commit if i looked silly ;) nice job

:O :O :O :O. Have you considered entering GD? I think you could go seriously far with painting like this 8)

Thanks. My goal is to one day enter GD but I think this year's competition may be too early for me as I still have some improvements to make. I'll see how things are around August.


Here's todays work:

I suppose it's a scratch on the wall, but it looks like a feather. That would be a nice addition!

Ha, I didn't notice that. It's actually a box lid that I use when spray priming my miniatures (the pictures turn out better with a dark background). The feather is where a base has become stuck to the surface.
