Back again with another post from the
Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge, starting with some command (C, S, M as we used to say) for my Germanic tribesmen. These are resin models from Warlord Games.
These dudes actually mix quite well with my Foundry models, after I cut off the integral bases. The models' feet are stuck straight down to the bases.
These guys seem to be quite fond of their severed heads, no??
Not to be outdone, the carynx-blower has a head hanging off his belt too. Nice models.
To complete a mini-project I've also painted a couple of "equally ancient" Citadel models from their 1980s Lord of the Rings range.
This is Boromir, from the ME21 "Boromir of Gondor" blister. Nice model in the old chunky Citadel style.
The other one is Aragorn, from the BME1 "Fellowship of the Ring" boxed set. Also a nice model but slightly gangly compared to Boromir.
Here's the whole crew from Citadel, with Aragorn and Boromir done that completes my old-school Citadel LotR collection. Good to have 'em done.
Now that the command is done for a German unit I need to get on to painting the unit... that'll come shortly.
I don't know if it was the intent of the sculptor but the figures are very much in tune with their representations in the animated film from 1978; you have painted them perfectly.
ReplyDeleteGreat work Dallas. That classic old Citadel LOTR crew is particularly amazing.
