Man! I really need to get some of those knights! Every time I see them painted up like this I get jealous.

I wish I could paint like you! Love your work!

Thanks Gondors Finest.

Sorry for a later than promised update.

I have finished the Haradrim's robes and their cloaks. Head scarves, waist sashes and shoes not yet done.

I chose to do the robes a series of various colours. Like other ancient Arabic armies, they do not all wear the same clothes as each other.

However I did do all their cloaks the same colour. I painted them scarlet. I did this because in Tolkiens books, the Haradrim are described as wearing scarlet cloaks. It also give them a sense of unity without making them all identical. I also love the colour red.

First I will just show you the step by step visual documentation of painting their cloaks.

OK and here are just some group shots.

C&C welcome.

P.S University is starting up again so this may be the end for a while. We'll see.

Perfect shades, wow. You spent a lot of hour for work.

Nice cloaks!

I am still amazed. Any progress on Suladin, or is he already finished? I don't remember.

Inspiring work Samoht! I will really like the contrasting colours on your haradrim! Looking forward to seeing more!

Wow, excellent work. You know you could always quit uni? lol.

CaptainOfTheWhiteTower · **Posted:** Sun Feb 26, 2012 9:18 pm

Wow, the cloaks look perfect. I like the Knights over the page too.

And you can't work all the time at Uni so I'm sure you can fit in some bits and pieces here and there

I'm awed by your painting. I learn just bij observing you paint! Those have got to be the best cloaks I've seen. Ever! I've scrolled through your post for six times now, and when I'm done I'm going to look again! WOW :yay:

Fishlegs · **Posted:** Sun Feb 26, 2012 11:03 pm

Absolutely outstanding painting. Those are easily the best Haradrim I've seen, and some great conversions. It's really great to see such warm painting that does not look out of place in Middle Earth.
