Just a quick post today - hobby time is somewhat at a premium these days. But I still managed to paint up another named Nazûl. This time the Dark Marshall. Other than that I did a bit more work on the High Elf Shadow Warriors, finishing one and starting on the base coats of the rest of the group.

As you can see, he's very similar to the other Ringwraiths I already painted. They are all basically a humanoid form in a dark shroud with varying degrees of armour. I was happy to snatch this model up in metal to match my other wraiths that are also all in metal and not in Finecast.
I also decided to try out a differnt basing scheme for my Mordor army. It irks me that I can't use my Mordor Orcs with my Isengard army and so I'm considering to change up the bases on my Mordor. The grass is not quite the same - Rohan grass being a bit to lush for my Mordor taste. But this should my not as noticable.

Here is the first of the Shadow Warriors finished. I quite like how he came out even if it's only the orange tabbard connecting him to the scheme of the wider army. The Shadow Warriors should be able to set themselves apart a bit.

| Pict 928: Alith Anar and Shadow Warriors (WIP) |
Lastly a quick WIP: the rest of the Shadow Warriors from the 7th edition box and of course Alith Anar to lead them into battle. Always great to have an infantry model shooting arrows using the bolt thrower mechanics in game.
Never heard of the Dark Marshall but I suppose the rest of the Nazgul had to come from somewhere. Shadow Warriors looking good. That orange (red?) is great, it doesn't overwhelm the overall colour scheme but is just enough to make it interesting.
ReplyDeleteYeah, only the Witchking and Khamûl are acually mentioned by Tolkien. All the other wraiths only got their names from GW. But they are cool models nonetheless - maybe even useful as an Animated Armour somewhere else.
