Oh reminds me that I still didn't gave any tips wait for that I have not much time sorry.

It looks allright but I think you should really stop with the green paint. If the model didn't had all that green spots it will look fantastic.

It's yellow

and i kinda like the yellow

even tough it might indeed be a bit weird. But i feel it gives him a more like a painting in some way. Can't really explain it well, but i kinda like it. I played a game today - might write a battle report - hopfully this evening b4 i forget about most things. I accidently dropped gandalf from moria box - his staff was almost broken. I could push it straith but it was bended really hard. I hope it stays as a whole... Wouldn't want a piece of...
Setting up figs and scenery and cleaning them up again asks kinda lots of time :-D

The ent it's branches are reaching it's end. Then i might do his hands and the small detailing - plus refining.

Did a fast, small ruin

The stone work looks good :!:

ty old man
here is the finished piece, only the glue of the rope still has to dry. Simple but i guess that's what ruins are?..

This has a nice weathered look - and the rope is a great touch.

I didn't really planned on working 40 minutes on it today... But it happened... (mixed to much clay - dangerous thing for messing things up).

Still needs some more work

I also tought of a squirl hanging there on a branch with two of his pawns - but i guess i am not that good at sculpting - so i better leave that be.

He reminds me of the tree guys from Shrek (III I think?) and that's a good thing. I love the personal touch of the birds nest as well.
The bark is awesome as well.
Keep it up

Very nice looking you do have talent for sculpting. They are getting betetr with every model you sculpt. I think you can always try to sculpt the squirell and if you are happy with him you glue him on a branch if you are not then you can always leave him but you tried it.

garmenhord · **Posted:** Fri Mar 11, 2011 4:46 pm

I think i might scrape that one side of... the bricks are a bit uhm - to big lol. I ll see. I guess i should be able to fix it. In worse case i stick some planks (cardboard strips ) B4 it

Don't work on the train - if u don't get one of those tables! :rofl:

garmenhord · **Posted:** Sat Mar 12, 2011 11:16 am

I glued it up - and finished up the basic part - still needs to be some more work on this one. I am not sure what i ll add later on. I guess something to put my captain on - so he can see everything from a higher position.

o and as u can see i managed to fix the bricks - i used some sand paper on it - worked perfectly
i tryd to scrape it of with a knife - it broke of and flew straith into my eyes - luckely no damage

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Sat Mar 12, 2011 1:06 pm

Looks good, I would suggest adding some more sand onto the ruin and maybe some fallen bricks. The platform for you captain is a good idea as well.
Keep up the great work

garmenhord · **Posted:** Sat Mar 12, 2011 1:09 pm

I haven't added any sand yet

, That's one of the last fases in building

might do some more painting on it to - a bit dirtying up the walls

edge67 · **Posted:** Sun Mar 13, 2011 9:44 am

Great idea to give the ballista crew some protection.

I agree that you could make things look a bit dirtier and weathered. I also think some fallen bricks at the front would be a nice touch - represent where the Uruks knocked the top of the wall down?

garmenhord · **Posted:** Thu Mar 17, 2011 2:15 pm

finally got to some painting

colours in real life are darker - flash made it lighter
