Dead Tiger

Got this from stephan,cheers mate lovely piece.

hoplites 5

hoplites 4

hoplites 3

last of the unit of 12 for armati rules.OK a couple of things,the decals are shite and there isn't a right arm that gives you the upright pike position had to carve away the under arm to get it into the right place.

moaning done,i still like them and the decals can be replaced.

immortal plastic Hoplites 3

few more to bore you with,got to say the transfers that are supplied with the figures are shite,poor to cut out and one of them,the large face with the sticky out tongue doesn't even fit the shields.

immortal plastic Hoplites 2

A foot soldier,nice scupt,crisp detail just found it a tad hard to paint the shield back when stuck to the figure.

Immortal plastic hoplites

Picked a box of these up at salute,as with must things i buy at shows,i have no idea why i brought them:-)) Maybe because of the nice box.Anyway very nice detailed figures lots of options to mix up heads,arms etc etc.Transfers are water slide,work ok but wargamming shield transfers have moved on these days with "Little bigman"etc.Not keen on the spears,bit brittle may replace if doing a lot of them with steel spears,another thing is a few unarmoured type figures,if your doing an army i would think they would be handy for light infantry but i would have liked a box of all hoplites and buy the light infantry seperate.

anyway here is the officer.

moria goblin

Just a standard plastic,found a few in a box in the shed.metal work is tin bitz with a touch of model colour aluminium mixed in for highlight.

whoooooooooooooo Floatey ghost

Well it was Sunday and i was bored.

Undercoated with GW Catachan green,then drybrushed with a mix of Catachan green and white,increasing the white for each highlight.

Uruk-hai Berserker

Plastic but better then most of the plastic's in have done so far,found him in a box of odds and sods in the shed.He had the flaming torch in his right hand broken so i stuck a shield on him.colours as before with the Lutz figure i did.

Grima Wormtongue

A metal this time,what a difference to plastic,nice easy figure to paint as well,undercoated in americana matt black,drybrushed foundry mid grey,then the hair to give it a greasy look was highlighted with miniature paints black.

Legolas

Another plastic LOTR figure.Nice figures but again with plastic the detail does fade in certain area's,this time it was where the hair meets the arrows on his back,takes a bit of creative painting.

saruman

Picked this metal saruman up for 99p on eBay.Black undercoated,so gave it a light undercoat of foundry late German grey C,then foundry Austrian white A/B/C followed buy pure white.Hair was white mixed with foundry rawhide C then highlighted with white.

Uruk-hai

Did this last night just for fun,well better than watching Eastenders:) Armour is GW tinbitz basecoat then tinbitz mixed with modelcolour bronze as 1st highlight then foundry chainmail mixed to this for the final highlight. Flesh is modelcolour Black red lightened with GW dwarf flesh.

landsknecht
