Nice minis James. Remember to file the back of your minis flat before putting them on the diorama, it looks much better then. :wink:

Btw, do you mind sharing the colours you used for your previous goblins? :)


I think the key was to just coat him in a few washes of badab black at the end to make him dark and grimey - and rather goblin-esque.


Okay, but the armour, which colours was that? Tin Bitz and Boltgun Metal or something?

Intresting paint scheme, I might test it out on a couple of old goblins I have lying around.

[center]A small update:

made a Mordor Uruk hai Banner Bearer for WoTR:

Also, gave the armour a wash of sepia, looks pretty nice imo.

James, where did those last 2 goblin archers go then?

If you wanted to see a bit more of the washes in action, Have a look:

Sepia on the armour, baal red on the cloth:

Before:

After:

And Finally, been working on Ugluk:

washes were great to work with on this model.

boy, you do a lot at once!

I like the banner bearer, good job on him. Not a big fan of the elves, like I said, but all the rest of the painting is very decent. I see you are using those washes to the extreme ehe, I'll really have to look into them.

I've never tried these "new" washes... guess I'll have to, some day.

I can see them woking fine for orcs, uruks and evil creatures overall, but don't they give a 'dirty' look to the "always clean end good smelling" elves?

I like the way the goblins armour came out.

Keep it up mate!

Fantastic work James!
I love the Mordor-Uruk Hai! I mean... I love the way he turned out (not having a crush on him... :? ). The skin looks so awesome! :) 8)

Well done mate!

Great work, James. 8)

I love your Mordor Uruk banner-bearer. Very nice model, a wonderful conversion. I love the goblins, their armor is perfect, though the skin seems a little dark. The armor on the Galadhrim looks good as well, I too love washing gryphonne sepia over gold armor. And the skin on Ugluk is amazing.

Keep up the fantastic work James. :)

Great job on the bannerbearer! I'd say maybe with a hobby knife cut some dents into the banner, to give it a more ripped and shabby appearance... Apart from that, Ugluk looks amazing! :-D

Now all you have to do is work on the other 50 minis you just bought :P

Very nice! I don't usually follow WiPs, but every time I look at this one I think "Hm, James is painting some good models" or something like that.
Keep up the good work! 8)





BTW, you might want to correct that typo.
