Collins does the defence of Minas Tirith
Gandalf and Pippin
This was an interesting challenge for me in comparison to the other models.
Keeping Gandalf and Shadowfax both white whilst making it an interesting model meant one of them was not going to be white. I opted to make Gandalf the one that’s cream. to do that I used sepia wash and reverse highlighted. I think I did a better job on the mounted Gandalf than on foot. it looked ok in real life but under the Lightbox and through the camera lens shows how I completely went overboard and didn’t have any white primer left on the high points, especially the broad bottom of the cape at the back.
still I’m happy with the result and won’t redo it but I think I could do better.
