This is a very niceeee.

You knew this question was coming. What's the recipe for the warm looking white cloth? haha.

Nice model even for tabletop!

He is probably using Steel legion brown to bleached bone.

Thanks guys.
Recipe - Army Painter Skeletal Bine base, Army Painter Strong tone all over. Re apply bone leaving recesses.
Add Vallego ivory 50/50. Ivory pure. Strong tone again in recess, dark tone in deepest recess

Really nice Gandalf. The final white highlights make it stand out.

Thanks mate. I work the shadows which makes the highlights stand out more. If it was needed to a higher standard I would have gone darker in places

Looks cracking for tabletop standard (and I'll be borrowing the colour scheme for when I eventually get to mine).

Thanks Phil, trick is to drag the pigments into the shadows and pull the highs to the top.
