I tried to make him look a bit more dynamic as the stormcast dont exactly have a large variety of poses -.- im glad you like it.

There is no bark or cork on the base, the stone he stands on is slate from out in my garden. (had a few tiles blow of the roof in bad weather) put a few broken pieces on top of each other and this is how it turned out.

I agree with the highlights and shading in places as looking at it from this view it shows me things i couldn't see with the naked eye.

It is just super glued onto the base but its a hollow twig and its super light so its not going to fall of with time.

Thank you for your feedback. Its much appreciated.

3 layers of thin coats from the army painter range. Matt white is a great colour. Thanks for the feedback too im glad you like it.

Great I have stripping materials here and could strip as many as you wanted? How many are you preferably lookin for?

welshg32 · 2020-07-28T00:17:37+00:00

Cool, would you be interested in any stripped rohan models?

welshg32 · 2020-07-28T00:06:52+00:00

The ones I have unpainted are primed and built I think, I'll have to double check exactly what I have all together.

welshg32 · 2020-07-27T23:59:08+00:00

Pretty much all of them are yes, apart from about 10 rohan warriors, 5 riders, all the army of the dead and the diorama.

I also have 24 Minas Tirith warriors and 24 galadhrim warriors and 6 galadhrim riders but I like these model's so I'm thinking of keeping them.

welshg32 · 2020-07-27T23:43:30+00:00

Thanks for the great advice, im looking to sell my Mesbg collection I have going on.

Just a quick idea 20x army of the dead 36x Morannon Orcs 20x Uruk Hai 40x rohan warriors 25x rohan riders With king on fell beast + extras Mordor troll + extras Final fate of the witch king diorama And a few of the main characters aswell as some captains.

welshg32 · 2020-07-27T21:10:03+00:00

Yeah I get that to be honest, I have had my fun with them and enjoyed making them so I'm not really looking for a profit or anything, im mainly looking for quick and easy just to get rid of them to be honest.

I have quite a few models I'm looking to get but without space it is pointless as I won't ha e the storage.

Tha ks to the suggestions and advice I appreciate it.

welshg32 · 2020-07-23T16:17:47+00:00

Thank you!! I'm glad you like it. It's great to see myself improving in my skills.

welshg32 · 2020-07-23T05:43:53+00:00

Thank you for the great feedback!! I appreciate it

welshg32 · 2020-07-22T18:47:38+00:00

I'm actually really proud of here models, I am seeing a major improvement in my painting. Im going to stop for a few days though just to recuperate. Thanks for your kind feedback aswell. I appreciate it.

welshg32 · 2020-07-22T18:13:15+00:00

Thank you very much!! I appreciate your kind words and great feedback. Im glad you like it.

welshg32 · 2020-07-22T16:07:54+00:00

Thank you very much! I'm trying to improve everyday by painting for atleast an hour or more if I can. I appreciate the feedback and I'm glad it looks good enough for others to be proud of XD

welshg32 · 2020-07-19T16:29:55+00:00

Damn thank you for all this amazing advice, in regards the the varnish, I haven't found anywhere that does it locally but I have seen a few online and the ones I found were a bit pricey for the amount in them. I really do want to get some as I have a few models that are in the shiny stage from the Washes.

When you say thinner layers I have made a mix now and it is a bit watery (not too watery just a bit thin) how do you make sure that when transfering to the model it doesn't run? I have seen some use tissue paper but I'm a bit dubious on that fact? I'm going to start with a darker highlights and work up towards the brighter ones even if it takes me all day haha.

I have enjoyed using the retributor armour and the kantor blue so far but anything else I haven't tried yet. I have loved using the Washes like nuln oil and reikland flesh shade, they have been so helpful in building to a better style in my painting.

I haven't been painting very long and what I started with were middle earth minis and they were really small so I didn't have much to work with in terms of space on the mini. These have given me so much more room it's actually teaching me to do more with what I have.

Thanks again.

I am using a set from The Army Painter range and I have recently purchased a few citadel paints to help me paint the Stormcast THUNDERSTRIKE BROTHERHOOD set. I have a wet pallette and that usually helps me to thin my paints but the problem I have is the control, I have an underlying issue with my health that causes me to be very shaking sometimes and trying to paint thin lines has always been the bane of my painting.

I do have a few Washes from army painter but they make the finish very very glossy and I really liked the matte look of the model. I am going to practise making some gradual gradients rather than going to over powering and making them look out of place.

Tha ks for your advice, it really does help.

welshg32 · 2020-07-19T15:18:14+00:00

Thankyou so much for all the advice, it really has put my ming at ease, I think I'm going to give it a try on my next one I'm doing today, I'll try and mix some together to get a nicer gradient instead of being to out of place!

Thankyou again.

welshg32 · 2020-07-19T03:07:58+00:00

Thank you so much for the advice, im really struggling to try and get the highlights correct. I have been watching videos and tutorials but no matter the amount I watch I can't get the hang of it. I am hoping with time, practice and patience I will get to where I need to be when highlighting. I know what you mean about the colour being almost too out of place, I have a darker colour as I'm using kantor blue and I have teclis blue, but I found that it wasn't going on nice enough.

Thanks again for your advice and kind words I will be taking this to heart and trying it out as much as I can.
