Just finished a shade, you can't really see any colours but you get the picture

ElfLover · **Posted:** Wed Sep 11, 2013 8:08 pm

Plain White

Oldman Willow · **Posted:** Wed Sep 11, 2013 8:42 pm

I have tried warm white, cold white and even neon yellow and green.
The warm white looks like a spirit to me

Nice work, but I think you can improve on your bases. They seem to be plain brown or plain black or... Try drybrushing the sand and using different colours. The models look good, so you have no excuses.

Ok thanks for the tip

Just some random things I've been doing lately, also tried posting without creating an atachment so we'll see how that will go

Mostly I've been trying OSL and have used magnets to stick the balrog and the troll for easy base switching and painting

I like the Balrog and the OSL on those bats look perfect :yay:

ElfLover · **Posted:** Sun Oct 06, 2013 12:55 am

I think the bats' OSL is the best though they are all fantastic

I agree that the OSL on the bats looks best. If anything a light touch of orange near the base will help.

you've come a long way
keep up the way you're going

Balrog88 · **Posted:** Mon Oct 07, 2013 5:29 am

Thanks for the great replies everyone and gandlaf I tried it out and it looked great but I fear I might have gone a bit overboard :oops:

Pics coming soon

Repainted the balrogs base, am finished with the palantir and have the batswarm redone

Rognarr · **Posted:** Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:06 pm

why did you repaint the balrog-base? i really liked the firy glow in the cracks...

i also fear, that you went a bit over the top with the palantir... I'm not really fond of the lot of red there..
the bats though look really nice!

Balrog88 · **Posted:** Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:27 pm

I think I'm gonna add them back pretty soon as to why is because I had done some major remodelling in the areas around the feet to fit the magnets and didn't really want a contrasting edge, as for the palantir I see what you mean but I don't really know what to do, a black piedestal is just so boring as I might use it as objective, any help would be appreciated

Balrog88 · **Posted:** Sat Oct 12, 2013 9:05 am

I think now I'm done with the base and is going to move on and start painting a troll of mordor, anyways here is a pic of the base

Balrog88 · **Posted:** Mon Oct 28, 2013 12:39 pm

This is the troll I showed in a earlier picture painted

I like the water and the little orc.

Gandlaf the Grey · **Posted:** Mon Oct 28, 2013 11:41 pm

A nice idea to add the Orc, it adds that extra dimension to the piece. The water h been done nicely and overall pretty damn good.
I bet your chuffed ?

The OSL on the bats is very effective. Did you paint the eye of Mordor on that Palantir or am I imagining things? If you did it looks amazing.
