The original photo has to be decent for that to have much of an effect.

You are taking the photos with the light coming from behind the mini (a window, I guess?). The light should be facing the mini.

Or just use a lamp, thats what I do :wink:

DarkWind · **Posted:** Fri Aug 28, 2009 11:33 pm

You could, but make sure the bulb is not too orangey as to discolour the pic.

As far as I can see his hair looks very good and so do his grey robes,

now just base him! :wink:

It's looking great. I love the hair and robes!

As has been said before, I love Gandalf's hair and robes. The highlighting on the hair is very good, it has a lot of depth to it. The staff is also very nice.

Now, get working on some Hobbits. :wink:

Too bad for the quality of the pic, but from what I can see, the highlights look pretty good! Especially the face and the robes look like they're very well done!

Hope to see some better pics soon! Keep it up mate!

thanks it's always great to hear feedback from great painters

i will get a lamp for the minis because it is very dark around here.

Fall of Fingolfin · **Posted:** Fri Sep 04, 2009 8:23 pm

well . . . here is a little update
the pics are very bad as it is nearly half nine and very dark outside . . . i will put some better ones up tommmoro:

these pics dont do the model justice
i cant really say C&C as the pics are too bad but this is just to get an idea of what the modely like.

Fall of Fingolfin · **Posted:** Fri Sep 04, 2009 8:34 pm

they are rubbish . . . and yeah its NMM

king elessar 2615 · **Posted:** Fri Sep 04, 2009 8:38 pm

how do u do ur nmm because i did nmm on king elessar mounted and it is really light compared to everybody elses (pictures of him at the weekend hopefully)

Fall of Fingolfin · **Posted:** Fri Sep 04, 2009 8:49 pm

well im not realy someone you wanna be asking but i can tell you how i do mine
first you take a picture with a lamp shining on it . . . then look at where the light reflects on the sword and you paint it the same as that.
the colours i used were around three parts codex grey and 1 and a half chaos black . . . the just keep adding around two parts white for a lighter highlight you need at least 7 or 8 layers for it to look smooth.
thats how i paint it
FoF :-D

I like the look of the cloak, as far as I can tell. The pictures really make it a bit hard to see though...

Ranger of Gondor · **Posted:** Fri Sep 04, 2009 10:40 pm

He's looking good, but I agree... the picture doesn't do the model justice :wink:

Gorgoroth · **Posted:** Sat Sep 05, 2009 5:35 am

Althogh, I agree the picure isn't that good
