Shield yes, speer no!
August 5, 2008 at 10:48 am #2742Keep ’em coming JD, I’m taking time out right now despite having that Corsair ship to build – too much work to be done around the house right now now that the long days are here!!
August 5, 2008 at 1:22 pm #2751It is no big deal about the shield and spear. He is holding another spear and I am fine with that and the shield, well I can use some other one. I will try and paint some minis soon and post them sometime this weekend for everyone to see, so stay tuned to your MMP Channel! 😆
August 11, 2008 at 7:58 am #2844There’s some nice work there JD – I like your Gamling
August 11, 2008 at 1:38 pm #2850Thank you, Master Axe. It is great to hear a compliment!
August 18, 2008 at 1:21 am #2898I have a couple of new ones for everyone!

?
August 18, 2008 at 4:17 am #2902You guessed right, Master Axe! The Rohirrim are my favorite.
April 11, 2009 at 6:40 pm #4880Well, it has been a long time since posting in some of my work, so here goes:

Tell me if his skin color is ok. I wasn’t sure if it should be a dark gray or the color I used. Let me know.
April 11, 2009 at 6:43 pm #4881And details are not my speciality!
April 11, 2009 at 7:29 pm #4883I think the skin color is perfect!
Too many people just use grey, green or similar colors for trolls. I think more of a fleshy color is a nice change. Good work – but aren’t you aiding and abetting that troll in the destruction of your beloved Rohirrim??
April 11, 2009 at 8:51 pm #4886mmh, the skin colour of Trolls is also my problem. That´s the reason the cleaver-Troll is still unpainted.
I think the fleshy-tone is a good alternative, Jason, really.
As far as I am concerned I am still searching for an answer.April 11, 2009 at 10:19 pm #4895First off, thanks for the compliments. Second, do you all think I should paint the rest of my trolls the same skin color?
Let me know.April 11, 2009 at 10:24 pm #4897Jason, I have to tell you a clear: yes. Let me explain. I think it is important to be consequent. That there is a ” line ” in coloration. For me it makes more sense,
when all Trolls have the same color-sceme. ( nevertheless there are different Troll-races. )
Otherwise there are fleshy, green and black ones, for example, and when I visit you somewhere in Taxas I think:
mmhh, this man can´t decide on which color to use for those Trolls. I would give all Trolls the same color.April 11, 2009 at 10:29 pm #4899Personally, I like variety in the skin colors (they could be trolls from different regions, or different species of trolls). However, if you want to select a similar skin color for all of them I think your choice is a good one.
Also, you are a better painter than you give yourself credit for! The details look fine. The armour looks nicely detailed. Your color choices are nice.
Maybe a little more shading or highlighting would add to the appearance, but that is fine-tuning. Overall, your figures make a nice presentation and would look good on a display.

April 11, 2009 at 10:29 pm #4900Thanks Christoph! I will do it then. The M49 is half-way done and I will post it when I am finished.
April 11, 2009 at 10:32 pm #4903O.K. Jason, lets wait for the M049.
April 12, 2009 at 1:12 am #4912Well, here they are:

I’m glad I don’t have to paint them. I wouldn’t know what colour to use for the skin eighter. But the colour you picked is not bad at all.April 13, 2009 at 1:09 am #4933Here is my shot at a Haradrim soldier:
