I often check ebay and of course there is a multitude of horrible paint jobs even for my standards, which aint good, lol. I have seen some insane color schemes. I received a batch of elves and there were a few test painted crazy colors. I was wondering, what was one of the coolest/craziest/most interesting paint jobs you guys have ever seen. I completely am so strict when it comes to painting. I want mine to look like the characters or like them with a little twist like a red elf cloak or something....but I usually am what some would call boring. But now, I do want to paint some troops(dont know which kind) with someone thats out of the ordinary. Im thinking Uruk Hai with basically red armor then darkened some manner. I was going to do some Morannons a lighter green over their armor but I got scared and painted over lol. I only had one set of Morannons at the time. So pictures would be nice, but at least stories or ideas youve seen. I dont intend this to be about good painting, because we've seen what some people do here cough Dead Marsh cough. But unique stuff! |

By far the craziest paint job I've ever seen was a bright fuchsia-pink Rivendell army. My local independent wargaming store were using it on a display to advertise the new Rivendell Knights (that is, when they were knew back when they were released), alongside some older LOTR SBG Galadhrim Elves. I have to say though, despite the garish colour scheme, it worked beautifully, and they were painted very well, almost on-par with the 'Eavy Metal standard of painting before that went slightly downhill. |

Oh man that would be brutal on the eyes. I wonder what inspired them. I couldn't hurt the KO rivendell like that |

I have seen some horrors, not just of painting but even more so in the assembly stages. At one event many years ago I had to ask a guy what the mini was that he had put down on the table. He looked mortified and said it was a chaos something or other. It was so bad I could not tell whether it was the right way up or not... and the paint job  The nearest I can describe that would be to put Shrek on hallucinogenics and let him finger paint a mini. |

I couldn't hurt the KO rivendell like that I have no idea what inspired something so bizarre, but like I said, strangely, it worked brilliantly! I just don't have the guts to do something like that myself. I also don't collect Elves, just a few Mirkwood folk here and there, so I could never forgive myself for painting my Dwarf horde in such a flamboyant way. |
