This miniature was a pleasure to paint, i really hope gamesworkshop will continue to produce this super high qualità new plastic range for lotr/hobbit characters! A lot of characters (if not all) deserve this treatment, i hope we will see also some evil one in the future (my hope it's a new Gothmog.... a man can dream  )Hope you like it:

Nicely done! I wish they had a paint job like this on the forgeworld website. You can really see the detail in the face here. |

Thanks guys! @Feanorthenoldor: sure, the step are more or less this: - Base ratskin flesh + white 60-40 (i use white from vallejo model color) - add white for the first light - agrax shade on everything (stay soft and controlled, best if mix with lahmian medium) - shade/glaze with doombull brown very diluited in the recess/darkest zone - get back to the first light - add more and more white in the lighter zone until you want/you fell satisfied |

I agree. I must buy this model? How much for it, with the paint on it? Just kidding, I blew all my money on wargaming already.That texturing is amazing... You should paint for GW. You make people want to buy their models. |

As other have already mentioned, this is a much better paintjob than GW's. You really managed to bring life to that face. The eyes are great in particular. I also love the robes. I think this is so close to perfection that I can offer some constructive critizism regarding what I do think look subpar. I think the shade below the cheeks are a bit too dark. Especially since the beard right next to it is not as dark. I think there could be larger constrasts on the sword to make it look more shiny. Lastly I think the hair looks a bit flat, but I suppose that is the way the model is molded. Maybe free-hand som invividual straws of hair? Those are just my remarks based on those pictures. Again, pretty close to perfection. However, do base it.
