Assembly was pretty straight forward. I kept close to the instructions and most of the parts slot right in. The head and tongue was pretty sturdy as they all clicked together. The legs and body formed very easily, however the Witch King didn’t seem too comfortable above his seat.

I mean, who would be right? I would genuinely pay money to watch The Witch King mount a Fellbeast. Does he use a step ladder?  Do his robes get in the way when clibling? Does the wind through the air atop of a Fellbeast pull his hood down?

Anywho, due to his lack of comfort, I decided to base spray both figues individually and glue once I have finished painting the two. Once they are both glued, I can then touch up the odd shadow here and there.

After scaring the bejeesus out of a passer-by family member as I was spray painting, as I was being described as “resurrecting a dead bat”, I left them to air out for about 60 minutes to give them a little peace and the paint to settle. Plus, I had something to eat – so waiting time wasn’t so bad.

Was genuinely chuffed with how the matt black base came out. I didn’t lose any texture, there was no alarming lines or marks from the filing, and what I was most concerned about – no detail was lost. Especially on the wings. I had plans for them!
