I recently got a sprue of Rangers of Middle Earth and I quite like these folks. Maybe I will modify the spear heads a bit, but thats it :)
THough, I really don't like the colour scheme GW used for them, do you have alternative ones? I'm looking for something darker, maybe with a touch of autumn.. I wouldn't mind to make them "rangers of the north" either.
It would be great if you had some photos for me, I couldn't find too much around the web :)

I'm keeping an eye on this thread, I wonder what suggestions will pop up.

I recently bought a sprue as well and plan on using some Rangers in my next game, so I'll have to paint them.
Just as you, I don't like the GW colour scheme and I'm thinking of using different shades of green and brown, preferably dark tones.

I find these schemes quite useful when I need some inspiration for elves and rangers.

Wow, very good picture indeed! It (late autunm) would make my Haradrim stand out a little.

And the 'winter' colour scheme would work quite well for Grey Company.

That wood elf pic is awesome! And yes, Leavos, i'm going to be stealing that idea for my Rangers of the North.
