Thanks, and I just want to say...his cloak is actually a grey/blue almost like ...shadow grey.. NOT like it looks (Ice blue and all) no no no...just can't seem to get a good photo without a flash on and his helm has gold highlights that are not picked up as well

Great work you have done there, is that you finished for this month?
I need to get cracking on those rangers but i have been distracted by guitar hero and 40k :-D

Well after about 5 hours painting here are my 11 finished rangers:

The guys with throwing axes are a bit rushed but it'll do.
I'm looking forward to seeing all you guys painting in January

Happy New Year!! :-D

For being rushed they look very well.... That is some nice painting , it would take me more hours to do that and it would look less great ..

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Sat Jan 01, 2011 12:22 pm

Thanks very much garmenhord. It just takes practice i guess and be prepared to have a sore back afterwards

Cyndra, good work on the ranges..and yes that is all my work for Dec. Was very busy and little time for gaming much less painting...sucks. BUT Jan seems to be allowing more time for paintings so....

Here is my entries:
IG x6 (that white shiny blur, upper middle, is a IG that hasn't been primed yet)

KG x13 (the Dwarven King and the other primed fig at the very top are not included)

I figure I can knock these guys out in January and then begin the loooooong painful process of doing the batch painting of the DW (has to be like 75+ of em) ...ya know...if there were some others interested we could do a online Iron Man painting contest. Some principle, but with a set point amount/figure tally and complete em within 24hrs. Take updated photos every 5-6hrs. and yes :oops:

...it seems I do need a village to paint... LoL :lol:

just so long as I'm not the village idiot

Good luck with all those KG

Here is my entry for this month:

Eomer- 75pts

Elf Warrior- 11pts
Shield

Total- 86pts

The elf won't be getting the highlighting treatment purely so he fits with the rest of them, but Eomer will be getting the works:

What about the rest of you guys?

Mike.

I've recently started painting my Gondor army and this sounds like exactly the thing I need to keep me going so I'll join in next month if I'm allowed

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Sun Jan 16, 2011 12:23 am

I see no reason that you shouldn't be allowed in and since Corsair and Joansean haven't been active with this thread lately we have to take it into our own hands. Welcome aboard!

Isn't imitation the best form of flattery? We were inspired by this and wanted something similar.

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Sun Jan 16, 2011 7:59 am

Good point BD. I was merely meaning that now we have some competition so we have some more motivation. Sorry if it sounded like I was accusing you guys of stealing.

Blue Dragon · **Posted:** Sun Jan 16, 2011 9:06 am

I never saw it as an accusation of stealing.

Red Corsairs · **Posted:** Sun Jan 16, 2011 1:28 pm

Excellent thanks Cyndra. Glad be on board. I'll finish the rest of my Rangers of Gondor so that I can join in next month with some Dunedain.

Elros of Numenor · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 2:33 am

Hey gents, can I join as well? Although if I do it'll be dwarves, and I can see quite a few on here already...

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 5:53 pm

Why the heck not! But we will have a lot of guys in February :-D

Maybe I should PM Corsair to see if he wants to keep running this thing.

I have James added on msn (though I never use it) so I can have a word with him about it on your behalf if you want?

Cyndra the Grey · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 6:05 pm

Oh yes please Red Corsair that would be great if you don't mind. Thanks a lot.

Red Corsairs · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 6:08 pm

Will do, I'll get back to you when I have an answer (or James will).
