For Gondor!! a Lord of the ring painting log.

[KaldCB]

Well as my last exam this semester is over, i now have 2 months off. and plan to get some painting done.

I have around 2000 point of Gondor soldiers that need paint, and i plan to give them that too

So as this is a new log, first the compulsary pictures.

My work station.


And my cat.


And here are the models that need painting. have 3-4 unopend boxes too.

[KaldCB]

Here is the first company of Minas Tirith warriors. they are painted very basic, but they will be finished allot faster this way. i almost used more time on the bases and the movement tray then the models


And with flash.


I still think they look decent, my heros and command models will recive some extra care.

They go very fast, so hope to bring out several companys each week.

Every comment and critic is most welcome!

I like them...

These models are really easy to paint and will get reasonably good looking with a fast paint scheme as well.

AWWWW WHAT A CUTE KITTY!!! But, the models look good too....

[KaldCB]

Thanks for the replies
And yes, that cat is a tease.

Have almost finished two companys of avanger bolt throwers.
will post some pictures tomorrow i think.

Why is your cat taunting me? What's his name? I have...a few cats myself.

Looking good! I really like these models. The bases look really nice as well!

Nice to see more WotR. I have a similar painting level/ambition with my easterlings so it will be nice to see how our army develop.

[KaldCB]

Thanks for even more replies
The cat is called Topsy. its a little weird cat, but he is fun.

Nice to see more WotR. I have a similar painting level/ambition with my easterlings so it will be nice to see how our army develop.

Well thank you. do you have/planned to have a painting log on your models? i always find it fun to watch what other paint. and more lotr logs are always fun.

I have an update today.

After some hours of painting they are done.
I welcome you drum drum drum. " 2 avanger bolt throwers"

On my mark, FIRE!

[bob_the_small]

REally nice painting!

[KaldCB]

Again thank you

Im now painting another company of warriors of Minas Tirith.
As my army will include lots of regular guys i just have to get them painted. but after that company i want to paint something else.
Maybe some rangers, knights. or even Faramir himself.

[KaldCB]

Update time again.

And you guessed it, another company of warriors!

"You are men of Gondor! whatever comes through those gates, you will hold your ground!"


back.


And with flash, im not sure if they look better with or without flash so i included both.


Now i can reward myself with something else. maybe a knight company

Comments and critics are always welcome.

[KaldCB]

More updates.

Have now painted a knight company. think i will paint two more before i move on to something else.
I used dark flesh for the horses, and was thinking of using vermin brown, and scorched brown for the rest, so they dont look alike.

Anyway. For gondor!!


Comments and critics are most welcome.

I can only hope to paint as much as you do this summer! Well done, keep them coming!

[bob_the_small]

You paint very quickly! Excellent stuff as usual!

[KaldCB]

Well thank you both.
I painting two coompanys of knights now, maybe i get them finished today, i have too see. As im playing the lord of the rings bonus material on my computer while im paint, i sometimes end up watching more then painting.

[KaldCB]

Its update time!

I did not get done that much painting yesterday, my girl did even take the kids to her parents, and i was thinking now i cant get some painting done, and as soon as i sat in my chair, i fell asleep.


Well i did get some painting done today. and have finished two companys of knights.
here are some grup shots of them and the first one i painted.


Charge!!!




comments and critics are welcome.
Now, what do paint next?

[bob_the_small]

More knights? I'd like to see an army shot... pretty please?

[KaldCB]

I have started painting some archers, once i have them finished i will paint the rest off the knights.
And then, i will make an army shot

[KaldCB]

More updates will come soon,
I attended a turnament last weekend, so there have been some stop to the painting. but I have not quit.
Archers almost finished
