Hello all, just joined up to the site and I have a question. I just ordered a box of Knights of Rivendell, and I am looking for a hand with the color scheme. I am still pretty new to the miniature scene.

I like the more maroon sort of color, as in one of the White Dwarf mags a few months back, Dan painted them in The Fellowship of the Ring scheme. I like the Hobbit scheme better.

Any help would be great.

Thx

As in gold like the last alliance elves? I'd like to have seen that.

This sort of colour scheme is fantastic IMO:

Not my work but I found this whilst doing a quick google - always a good place for inspiration. You'll need to be more specific with what you want the model to look like if you want help but there are some great artists on here who will definitely help you out a lot, as they've done for me many time. Just say what you want!

The version appearing in the movie and the version in the trailers is slightly different - here is the version from the trailer:

The darker version can be seen on Elrond:
