Boromir is superbly well done. His facial expressions are really well captured. Frodo is a little shiny and you might not want the skin to be too dark at places, a little less contrast would do him good. It really makes his face look deformed but the highlighting is really well done.

Awesome job on Boromir and Frodo, Lurtz however just looks a little dull on the brown leather/cloth stuff. I can see the highlights, but they're quite dark and so it really just looks one color. Other than that, he looks terrific, especially his skin.

Nice work John; Frodo looks really good so far!

Wow! Sorry for the MASSSIVE lack of updates guys!

To answer some questions:

@werner: Boromir's cloak was done with a basecoat of Scab Red (lots of layers), followed up with Red Gore highlights, washed with Devlan Mud, and then given another highlight with red gore. Final highlights were made by adding a touch of bleached bone to the red gore highlight.

@Raukov: Bases were basecoated with scorched brown, given a drybrushed highlight of snakebite leather, then given a drybrushed highlight of snakebite leather and fortress grey (about 40:60), then add a little bleached bone to the previous mix for a final highlight.

Anyways, here's some current progress - just a little practice on faces, using a new method which integrates ogryn flesh into the current mix. I think it's turned out really well, but obviously a lot more work to go on the rest of the mini ><



Let me know what you think

It's great to see that you're painting again. Nice work on Denethor so far, you've highlighted his facial expression well.
