They are looking great so far. I like the snowy bases on the goblins, and that rusty shield is excellent! The balrog is awesome aswell, especially the flames on his mane :D

Thanks mate :) I think i way not use the snow, and instead go for a worn, stone tiled floor... :roll:

Looks great but 1 hit on Balrog playing stille. Sword is counting as a normal hand weapon and doesn't have any special abilty but with whip he gots some extra attack and have long range. So if u want to play with this army i suggest u try putting whip in his hand.

Nice work, 8) I like the colour of the Wargs but not so much the blood.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys :) I'll probably repaint most of my army, and get some better pics for you soon :)

Great work so far :yay: I like the snowy bases its like they've all come out of their tunnels to fight (after all, they can't always fight underground). The balrogs flames look good and so does the goblin armour; nice & rusty.

One criticism, the blood just doesn't look right, try to think of why the blood is there, what was the goblin hitting/stabbing? what angle? Then water down some red paint and splash it so it looks right. It might seem a weird thing to do, but it makes it look better in the end.

I'll be following this log anyhow...

I agree, the red splotch on the back hind leg of the Warg looks quite odd...

Post subject:  PICTURES!!
I got some pics for you :)

I've got the shadow lord, and 4 goblin archers for you.(The shadow Lords pics have been brightened slightly, so you can see the highlights on the black a bit more clearly)

So Without further Ado:

Just for future reference, use slightly smaller pics. 800x600 should work.

Now, onto the painting....

The Shadow Lord looks excellent. Decent amount of contrast and the black is highlighted without looking gray (an excellent accomplishment!)

The goblins look great as well. I see you even got the eyes painted on all of them! I personally vote for rust, as I see Moria Goblins as not caring one bit about their equipment, and in the deep, dark, damp hole that is Moria, there is probably going to be rust :)

Ah. Sorry. Didn't know about the small pic thing. I'll be sure to do it next time.

Thanks for the comments. The shadow lords cloak was a pain to do, I'll be honest :oops:

I'll try and get some rust on the as well. Then get to painting more of the little buggers :P

Wow! You can almost see the atoms! :-D

Looks nice mate, but the pictures are so big that its actually kinda tough to get an actual feel of the mini. The files are quite heavy too...

Next time make sure you resize the pictures to suit the forum layout: around 600 pixels wide is what we usually ask. If you want to show bigger pictures its fine too, but post the thumbnails here instead of the the actual pictures.

Got some new stuff for you.

I plan to make 24 different bases, and cast them, so I can use them on my goblins. I got 5 in the green stage so far.

And here's my WiP Drum

Sorry for the Devlan Mud pics. I'm doing all this from my phone :)

*minor bump*

Wow! Great bases, they look exactly like stone tiling. :yay: Though I'd suggest adding some rubble to make it a bit more interesting.
