I knew the sword was glowing. That part is excellent. 8) It just looked like he was standing in waves like he was fighting the Watcher in the Water or something. :-D
Now I can see the rocks though. :oops:

Good job Martinus - gret highlights on the cloak, the sword looks good and worn like its been through many a battle, facial detail well picked out and nice basing. A good all round entry :yay:

I've spent like twice the time for the grass and non existing eyes after I finished painting him. Nope I can't do it. It's impossible. I need some very thin brush I think. I can't get an eye! :shock: And GW's super glue does not work well with GW grass, I think I need white glue for bases... Well here my final entry.

Here is my finished Frodo.

The casting of the face doesn't seem to be great, and I've decided not to paint his eyes (he's sleeping).

I think he looks better sleeping - the pose wouldn't suit eyes imo. Nice entry!

Thanks DMS, I'm really surprised to get him finished, the Theoden I painted for a previous challenge ending up taking about 6 months.
