Been a while since I updated this so be prepared for a lot of pictures.
First I've got some tabletop quality stuff for my battle companies. I have since switched from my dwarves to a Mordor company so it's mostly orcs.
Then I have these two nicer ones. First is the famous uruk-hai scout wielding an axe. I wanted to stick pretty close to the movie for this one, so meaning a lot of different tones of brown, and a dark look overall. I did end up makeing it brighter than the movie just because the uruk in the movie is ridiculously dark. For the base I wanted it to at least resemble the scene in the movie, which was a lot of brown and yellow. I wanted to add leaves to it as well, but I don't have any and was too lazy to make my own.
Next I have what I'm calling a Swan Knight from Hell. This is something I did for fun and didn't really plan anything out, I just had an idea of what I wanted to do and ran with it. It took a lot longer than I was expecting it to, and it actually ended up just sitting on my desk for a few months. I originally wanted all the non-red bits of armor to be gold nmm, but my first attempt was way too yellow which gave off a ketchup and mustard kind of vibe that I didn't like. I eventually switched to silver and was much happier with how it looked.
The base is the only thing that really suffered from my lack of planning. When I assembled the model, I pinned it to the base and glued it on along with the sand. Only when I was nearing the completion of the paintjob did I realize I didn't really care for the base. I decided to leave though because I didn't want to risk ruining the paintjob trying to get it out of the base. In the end I'm fine with the base, it's nothing special, but at the same time it doesn't distract from the model itself.
And that concludes this massive update, I will try to be more consistent with updates in the future.
Thanks for looking!
