nice diorama

What a fantastic base!!!!!!!!! I love it!!

What did you use for the little plants - we must have some!

Great work as usual POW.

Rognarr · **Posted:** Thu Oct 24, 2013 4:22 pm

Yep, the base totally nails it!

Such a shame about that grainy finish because this is a truly excellent piece. The painting is great with subtle changes in colour and the base is exceptional.

Splendid piece :yay:

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the feedback.
DMS, assuming these are the plants you're talking about, I actually got them from these plastic trees. I just cut off each "layer" and glued 'em on. I also painted them some to make try and make them look less plasticy.

Thanks again!

Quick update, I just did a small conversion.

Thanks for looking!

Excellent little conversion. I suppose that's an Kataphrakt arm?
He looks to be a very suitable Captain, or with some more conversion, King!

Lovely diorama of Galadriel and I like the Easterling conversion a lot.

I am not sure if it's due to the white tack that you have used, but the right arm looks considerably larger than the left one.
Or does it look that way only from this specific angle?

PowerofWill · **Posted:** Thu Nov 21, 2013 2:15 am

Thanks all! It is indeed a kataphrakt arm, and it probably is larger than the left, but I think it looks worse in the pictures than it really is.
I'm currently working on some haradrim, I was originally going to enter them in this months challenge, but they are taking much longer than I expected, so I don't think I'll be able to enter this one. So far I have finished one.

Thanks for looking, and let me know what you think!

Nice colour scheme. If you had said brown and blue I would have said no, but seeing them together like this is a definite yes.

garmenhord · **Posted:** Thu Nov 21, 2013 7:38 am

I think you did a really nice job on the nmm high elf! I was wonderen if you might tell me which colours u use on the nmm?

Grtz

PowerofWill · **Posted:** Sun Nov 24, 2013 11:24 pm

Thanks guys! Chreddar, I used Bestle Brown, Bubonic Brown, Leprous Brown, and white. Maybe a little Dark Flesh in the darkest parts.
So I got some of the new technical paints to try out and here are my results,a swell as another haradrim warrior which I also used the new paints on.

The green on the spear is to simulate a poison smeared spear tip. I used the rest and blood ones on the goblin. I really like the grit on the wash-like one(sorry can't remember names). I used the turquoise one on the haradrims armor,as well as the others. I did also get the cracking ground one which I really like, but I don't have a pic of it yet.
More haradrim coming soon!

Nice pics!

I agree, the new paints are great fun. I've been going back to older minis and seeing where I can use them.

PowerofWill · **Posted:** Thu Dec 05, 2013 6:05 pm

Thanks! Here is another update, my first raider. The horse is coming soon.

Thanks for looking.

The Haradhrim are quite stunning - the bright blue is very distinctive and not out of context (I have seen colours like this in some desert cultures). The wickerwork looks fabulous. very well done.

PowerofWill · **Posted:** Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:52 pm

Thanks you Dorth

I've had a lot of fun painting them.
Just two days ago I found out that one of my best friends died in an accident. Things are a little rough right now, so I may not be doing a whole lot of painting for a little while. But for now I'll leave you with the finished raider minus the base.

Thanks for looking.
