Smoke Ring Miniatures

Lord Elrond is finished :) For this one I used the following paints: Citadel Cadian Fleshtone; Kislev Flesh; Auric Armour Gold; Ironbreaker; Dryad Bark; XV-88; Nuln Oil; Goblin Green (old citadel); Enchanted Blue (old citadel). Army Painter Quickshade Strong Tone Ink; Ultramarine Blue; Greenskin; Matt Black; Matt White; Leather Brown. Vallejo Old Gold; Basic Skintone; Sepia Shade; Fleshtone Shade; Green Shade; Blue Shade.

Well... I went shopping again :D This time I bought from Citadel: Agrax Earthshade - Shade; Nuln Oil - Shade; Cadian Fleshtone - Layer; Administratum Grey - Layer; Blood for the Blood God - Technical; Mephiston Red - Base; Death World Forest - Base; Dryad Bark - Base; Rhinox Hide - Base; XV-88  -  Base; And from Vallejo: Thinner Medium; Gloss Varnish; Matt Varnish. I'm feeling very excited with all this purchases. I finally managed to lay my hands on Blood for the Blood God, which is an epic gore effect, and on the bottled varnishes, who will offer me a lot of control, instead of the spray varnish I'm using right now (which is also vallejo).

Hey guys :D Another one finished, this time is Lady Galadriel of Lothlorien! I'm very happy with the final result on this one. The face and hair in particular are very pleasing to me. For this mini I used the following paints: Vallejo Offwhite; Sand Yellow; Fleshtone Shade; Pale Grey Shade; Sepia Shade. Army Painter Daemonic Yellow; Matt White; Matt Black. GW Dwarf Flesh; Ironbreaker.

Just a small preview. He just needs his base finished until the main post. Well, I must say that his armour was a real pain to paint. Damn you Rohan armourers!!

Number 28: Haldir! So, my progress on the highlights continues in a slow pace, but with satisfying results :) Here's how I painted Haldir: Basecoat - Grey ; Down Mail Coat - Gehenna's gold base followed by a Vallejo Sepia Shade Wash. Then I went for a mix of Gehenna's Gold and Ironbreaker and applied it to the edges of the mail; Upper Armour and Shirt - The middle part of the armour I first based it with AP(Army Painter) Dragon Red. Then I applied a wash with Vallejo Umber Shade and the highlights on AP Pure Red. Finished with that, comes the rest of the Armour. A base of VMC (Vallejo Model Color) Old Gold will be just perfect. Then a wash comes with the mixing of Vallejo Green and Black shade and washes. This gave the armour the tone I wanted. After the wash, comes the highlights. I mixed VMC Old Gold and Citadel Ironbreaker to highlight this part of the armour, and it's finished. About the shirt, a simple Black basecoat and grey highlights...

Well, someone went shopping! This is just a small post before my finished Uruk-hai siege troops. GaleForce 9 - Winter/Dead static grass Citadel - Static Grass Citadel - Middenland Tufts Citadel - Plastic Glue Thin  Vallejo - Matte Varnish Citadel - Ironbreaker Citadel - Auric Armour Gold Citadel - Gehenna's Gold Vallejo - Old Gold Citadel - Stormvermin Fur Citadel - Dark Flesh Citadel - Kislev Flesh Vallejo - Basic Skintone

Hey guys, in this post I'll explain how i did the different types of orc skin on my Mordor orcs. It is actually a very simple process. The first thing I did, painting the skins, was basecoating all in Vallejo Deck Tan. Then I've just applied the washes, and it's finished. The skins are going to look like they're stained but thats exactly my goal. The result looks really cool for these orcs. I got all this washes from Vallejo so, there's infinite possibilities with them: And now, here are the different skin tones I got by mixing all these washes:  This one is a cool brownish green got thru the mixing of: 20% Blue Wash 20% Pale Grey Wash 30% Umber Wash 30% Green Wash  The mix for this one is: 60% Green Wash 30% Pale Grey Wash 10% Sepia Wash This one results from mixing: 40% Umber Wash 25% Sepia Wash 20% Pale Grey Wash 15% Green Wash And finally, this last one results from: 10% Pale Grey Wash 30% Fleshtone Wash ...
