Axemen of Lossarnach

The Axemen of Lossiemouth, sorry, Lossarnach, were easy enough to do.

The delay in getting them to the blog is mainly because the fourth test took up so much of my time.

I've assumed that, as they come from the same general area as the Clansmen, there terrain is similar.
Not, as described on Wikki,

'The climate hovered near the moderate and extreme with mild winters and hot dry summers and the terrain consisted of scattered woodlands and undulating lowlands.'

but heather covered heathland.

The shirt/skirt clothing I've painted in Kabalite Green rather than black.

Reason - I found some in a starter box I had laying around and liked the colour!

Fellowship, Aragorn

 Aragorn, scruffy as usual.

Feeling fair and seeming ...

Poor light for these two shots and I've just noticed that ring that he wears.

I've done a little 'wear and tear' weathering to the boots and cloaks of all of them.

Just the bases to do, once I can decide how to do them.
I've enjoyed painting these characters so next I'll be tackling Haldir with bow, Weathertop Aragorn, three Axemen of Lossarnach and Prince Imrahil, (foot and mounted) as a sort of batch.

The primer applied to the Fellowship eliminated the paint slip problem except for the tip of Gandalf's hat.

I used Humbrol acrylic spray primer.

I'd made sure that there were not too many points on weapons and clothing too.

I now feel happier painting metal models.
