Well, King Théoden just needs his base finished.
His armour was an abysmal pain to paint :-X

coming along well. Théoden and Haldir look very good. I think Haldir could use a little bit of shading to give it some contrast, but that is my taste.

When you say it could use some shading, you mean in his skin right?
I'll certainly do it

thanks!

Love the work on Theoden's face and hair, he has a real presence and authority.

Great work, you did really well on him and it's nice to see your fast improvement as you go on mini by mini..!

I remember painting my Theoden, the armour was quite tricky. But you did great!

Great progress throughout your WIP

.
Do you only paint or do you also play through the BGIME scenarios?

Gandlaf the Grey · **Posted:** Thu Sep 18, 2014 2:35 pm

I think a thin dark glaze to the hair to add a little shad end a dark brown thin line to frame the hair and face.
This will just help to set an otherwise excellent piece.

Yep, when I first looked at the photos on my pc I realised that... I dont know, but it seems to me that the varnish made the mini look a bit lighter, not only in the hair but in the hands as well :roll:

Anyway, thank you once again Gandlaf :rofl:
