This is my first entry into the GT and since the Toronto GD is close
at hand I've decided to enter part of my display the Mordor Troll
from the Catapult set. I'll enter the entire set at the GD which
will be my first as well.
I don't use standard miniature paints and I have opted to use Cream
Coat (cheap bugger) with some of the GW inks and washes. The Troll
was primed white with the deep recess black lined. I started with a
base of Burnt Umber mixed with a drop of yellow and white. I've
worked up the highlights about 3 shades and the shadows down to a
dark brown. The finger nails came out quite well using the same
colours and then using a glaze of off white over the top and black
ink at the nail base. Terrain is fairly simple since this is part of
a larger display. Fine gravel painted with shades of brown and black
with a light off white drybrush some static grass and field grass.
Then in a fit of sleep depravation I scribed the "one ring to rule
them" script with my brush around the base.
I also have some additional photos in my file folder in the files
section.
