Today's update covers some more Galadhrim. A Galadhrim banner lad, Haldir with armour and sword and spirit/angry Galadriel. The only new scheme used for any of these models was for Galadriel. I prayed her Grey Seerer, and covered the whole model with Briar Queen Chill (GW Contrast), I then shaded the entire model with Coelia Greenshade. I then dry brushed the model with Grey Seer and did various glazes with Coelia Greenshade/Grey Seer.

Warcry Heart of Ghur Terrain
Quite a big project from last year... the Heart of Ghur terrain set. Incredible scenery, pain in the arse to build and paint but totally worth it.
Having said that, I'd quite like those 8 hours I spent painting all the ropes on the Bamboo bridges and walkways!
Here the process/techniques.
Basecoats
Sprayed Colour Forge Hyrax Brown.
Skeletons - airbrushed Gobi Brown, then up to AK Warm GreyBamboo - Morghast Bone, airbrush highlighted Warm Grey
Rope - Vallejo Dark Grey
Tree teeth and other bone features - base-coated AK Warm Grey
Seraphon Ruins - Zenithal Death World Forest then Nugling Green over the brown basecoat
Trees - Rhinox Hide, highlighted Mournfang Brown. Bugmans Glow then Cadian Fleshtone on the upper bit where the teeth are.
Ground bits - Cygor Brown
Rocks - Stormvermin Fur then highlighted with Aminitratum Grey
Wash - dark brown oil wash then matte varnish over everything.
Next up, I highlighted the trees with a dry brush of Gorthor Brown then Baneblade Borwn. I also drybrushed Cadian Fleshtone on the tips. Finally, paint over tree teeth with warm grey and apply a wash of Red Tone to the teeth/tips of the branchesI then highlighted the rest of the bone, bamboo with a dry brush of warm grey.
Apply Athonian Camoshade to the base/lower parts of each piece.
red/brown pigments then gamers grass paper flowers!
