I would like to participate with MS496 ‘Witch-King™ in his true form’.
Is that allowed ? As it is a Nazgul in it’s true form, it must not absolutely be painted in black…altough I do not know yet what colours I would give it…

Yup gerold feel free to participate, since you are choosing a Nazgûl. The idea behind this nazgul thing is to practice black or dark colours and variations within those. This does not mean you could not paint the face in a spectral white-grey-green-blue, neither that you could paint focal points in brighter colours but you/we should stick to an overall dark scheme.

Sorry for not opening a new participation league 03 thread, I was delaying it intentionally because we are only 4 participants so far and I think it is a bit short on people …

On the other hand I did not get any answer from people around here about moving this league idea to the mithril forums (see post #53 and #54 a little bit upwards).
So seeing how is doing this third league and because of the lack of interest/low participation I think I will move forward and try to organize something there with the hope to reach more people than on this beloved mmp pages.

I understand how you feel Master Maenas. I still want to keep,painting as this monthly deadline has put some move in my paintings. So I will follow you in this case, no matter the place.

Is this still happening? I’ve been a bit busy elsewhere of late with other projects, but if we are still on (all 4 or 5 of us ) I will select a suitable Nazgul and get cracking .

Well, here’s a picture of my starting miniature (even still in blister)

But I can not paint it black. The W-K in its true form should have a pale shiny color I think.

I am going to use the Nazgul figure from the SALUTE ‘freebie’ for this one. I will try and get a photo posted of it in its current unpainted condition .

. . .you can choose a dwarf and give him a yellow colour scheme. Everything is ad absurdum here . . .

Well, I made a small scene using [mith]M348[/mith], [mith]M349[/mith] and Prince august decor S4

Here is my Nazgul:

I hope you like it. Note that it is not a diorama as I kept miniature bases for glass cabinet display.
Any criticism welcome.

Yes master Milo, very nice scene!
The Dalmations jump in the eye ; original to paint them like that.
Leaves are a nice addition too, as this scene takes place in september, right ?
And of course, the Nazgul, I like him!

I’m still working on mine ; I think I will need al least another week, as I don’t have much time to spend on painting at the moment…
