My painting has been slow over the last two weeks. Most nights after work I’ve done bits of painting while playing Talisman. I collected some sand during the week to add to my modelling materials and have found that tea leaves (from a unused tea-bag) make very good flock. Unpainted they look like dry leaves, with some green they do a good grass/moss impersonation!
Citadel Horses – Lord of the Rings
I’ve finished six of the “Lord of the Rings” horses and have made progress with my Angmar Troll, two Frodo figures and Beorn. I’ve retouched a bear (also Beorn) and I’ve got three goblins and three orcs to do some re-painting with too. I was very happy to get a mostly sunny morning today, to put the horses out and spray them! I think I need to buy another can of clear acrylic when I next go near a Bunnings store.
I’ll put up more pictures of the horses when I’ve got the whole series done!

The horses have come up very nicely. I especially like the finish on the grey!

I like the white one the best so far. If you have a special character or leader you are going to use, put him on the white horse! 🙂

The white is “Shadowfax” and I used images from the LotR Movies and a picture of Blanco (the “actor”) as a basis for the figure. I got a good effect with shading (ink) and highlighting – much better than I’d expected for a figure that is mostly one colour.

Yes, it came out nicely. I’ve found that large areas of white can be hard to work with at times.
