Castellan of Dol Guldur finally finished.

C&C welcome, I tried to keep it close to the Black Numenoreans I painted not so long ago

Good choice of colours and some nice freehand work on the cloak.
I would like to see you push the contrast by shading in the folds of the cloak. Use black or a dark blue mixed with black and apply in thin layers to these folds and you will see the contrast develop. It should take a few coats to achieve the look, you cannot and should never do it in one coat.

Thanks for the advice, I'll put a bit more work into it when I get time off form the kids lol

I agree with Gandlaf. You've got a good steady free-hand so details will come easy. Spend a little time building up layers, shades/highlights (there are numerous techniques) and you'll see huge improvements.

Thanks for the advice I'll have to do a bit more work on shading

Lovely bright colour scheme

Really wanted them to stand out against the rest of the Dwarfs I planning a duller paint scheme for them

Blue flag is a stand out piece, well done.

Thanks Gandalf. Now just have the other 5 or 6 warbands to paint up and hopefully some new Iron Hills stuff when ever it gets released
