So I recently started repainting my Elendil, deciding I could do better then he was, so here he is so far :
I'm thinking do the skin a bit lighter, and some highlights.

I'd give him a thorough rebase...some washes on the armour and cloth and then pick out the detail with highlights. |

What I did with Elendil (and looks spectacular I think) is to trim his shoulder paldrons and vambraces with gold. He does look very good already just my two cents |

I'd have to agree with JamesR, I've done that with my Fountain Court Guard and it may be a small thing but it makes a really big difference |

Thanks, just done the suggested trim on the armour, so will take pics of that in a bit possibly, should I try and do highlights on his cloak before or after the likes of washes and inks? I use army painter quickshade applied with a brush. |

Here is the latest progress on hims, am quite happy with him so it's really inks, washes and possibly highlighting I need to do now.

Well he now has the quickshade on him, trying to decide which ink would be better for the armour, sepia or a blue?   Will be doing a few matt coats. |

He looks quite good. That trim-job looks especially great |
