You've done a great job on these orcs, and the base as others have said. I admire your dedication to these minis. I wish I could get myself to spend as much time on such minis rather than considering them one of a horde.

cool, have you played any company games yet ? I've read the rules but never tried it, it looks interesting, more character.


Yes but not much. The last time we played each two demo games...
I really like it so far!

Your work looks great as ever! I'm looking forward to more!

I also wish you luck with your games and hope you don't lose loads of guys in the first few games (that happened to me once, trying to fend off 15 orcs with 3 WoMT is, unsurprisingly, very hard. ) :roll:

2 warriors of minas tirith finished:

I'm not 100% satisfied. The faces are too dark (not use 'devlan mud' any more) and the highlights are too big, too bright.
I'm going to repaint the faces.

Any comments and suggestions are welcome!

Armor seems a tad rough IMO, mainly on the archer. Maybe a wash to smooth it down?

The bases look great :yay:

They do need some fixing up but you've done a great job so far. The base looks good, the quiver is very well painted, and the hair is just stunning, very realistic in my opinion. Great work, keep it up.

Correct, I've looked at some pictures from the movie and the armor is brighter. I think I'm goig to give the armor a layer of boltgun metal

I would advise you to fix up the metallics. The different pieces of metal all seem to merge into one, especially at the knees and the archers sword. As Anduril had said a wash should deal with it. The highlighting on the clothing should also be smoother. Using a darker colour for the highlights and thinning down the paint would really help. And as you said the faces.

Your orcs are consistently of a very high standard, great work. The fur and teeth of the wargs look very nice and very realistic. The eyes let them down, the eyes of the one on the right looks pretty good but one the one on the left the white paint has also gotten onto the eye lids. Touching up the eyelids with gray and adding a thin wash of black to outline the eye would make it look a lot better.
Likewise the ranger's clothing is very very well done, I love it. But, the flesh lets the whole piece down. I can't really help you here as I am also struggling with the flesh but if you could fix it up it would do a lot of good.
