WIP it
Middle-Earth, done and dusted.
Celeborn and Haldir were added, and finished last weekend, and even placed in the cabinet with the rest of my Lothlorien force.
They had both been primed grey, for ages now, but knowing they both have a goodly amount of armour, I figured they probably should have been primed gloss black. So I roughly went over the armour in the gloss black. Metallics always work best over black, especially gloss. After the black I did the classic vallejo model air metallic steel 71.065, but hated it. So back to black I went, I dug out the ancient citadel chainmail, and dry-brushed it on, then a much lighter dry-brush of mithril silver, the rest was just paint by numbers following the closest colours I could find to the rest of the army. When it came to basing, I found that I had no more of the super old GW static grass, so I have to use grass tufts that were as close to the same colour, which is super annoying. I’m probably going to have to go through and add tufts to the rest of the army…
