Collins does the defence of Minas Tirith
Have rocks, Will throw
Now for this I decided that I was going to go with quite a light colour for the wood. most wood is painted quite a dark brown as wargamers always go ‘oh wood, that’s brown’ getting confused between wood and tree trunks. sure there are redwoods and dark woods in the world but a lot of the strong hard woods eg oak, are actually quite light in colour.
agreos dunes was the contrast paint of choice used for this followed up with a tyrant skull dry brush to ‘silver’ it up a bit. I then went back in and added streaks of agreos dunes too try and add grain and disguise the fact its contrast paint. didn’t work well in some areas due to being too heavy handed on the first pass but never mind.
the metal was bolt gun metal and basilican grey wash. the rock bag was skeleton horde and the rope was gor grunta fur.
this is a quick paint job just like the rest of the force (contrast mainly) and so minimal effort involved. the hardest part was gluing it together and then pinning it to the base.
