Fantastic! That white is literally perfect.

So, here they're, all of them so far.

(not really :-D , just finished a couple of days a model that I find very fitting for a stormcaller coming outside from the LotR - Hobbit range, so there I truly need your thoughts.)
I'll photograph it soon.

After the following were sold on eBay some time ago, now I feel that I can upload them here and share them with all of you.
If, by any chance, by uploading them, I violate some kind of OR policy regarding eBay auctions that I'm not aware of, I'll erase them immediately.
There were several projects that went that way, so I'm going to keep this thread busy for a few days.

Here are some denizens of Angmar

The Barrow Whites look really good in the gold/red/ blue shade skin look. Very Vampiric.

thanks, I tried them that way for that exact reason. They were one of my first attempts on non-metallic metal a few years ago.

Incredibly beautiful miniatures and colours! I love them! Also your photo set-up is very nice and gives background atmosphere. The elven army is really impressive and looks very good on the battlefield!

I can't wait for more pictures ;)

Cheers, Marc

Brilliant, non-metallic metal looks very realistic

Spiders are looking brilliant, so much so that I don't want to look at them too closely. Those elves look very royal too - great stuff.

This one was finished a week ago, it took me 2 days.
It was primed in 2005 and left in a drawer ever since... until recently.
It comes from outside the LotR range, but I liked the model a lot. It's from Mordheim and at that time I felt that it suited LotR a lot, it's only a bit taller than the rest elves. I always wanted to use him as an Elf Mage and some years later GW made me a favor by making up Elven Stormcallers. :-D :-D

So, what do you guys think? Does this one suit the rest of LotR models?

Nice figure.
I think if you add some thin dark purple then thin dark blue, you can create extra depth in the shading of the cloak.

Great work! I love the colours, and also the lovely vibrancy of the photo you've got a great set up there! :)

Nice work! Yeah he looks very suitable. A bit of GS work and he could be armoured up and ready to go. Would be good to have a size comparison pic :)

Really great model, fits perfectly to wood elves. The painting is also amazing but really loved his face! its like he is alive! Great work!

I think he looks fantastic. Very well painted and a great sculpt. even if he is a tad bigger, well looking at the metal High elves and the plastic ones I can't say LOTR has been keen on holding scale. Alos people are sometimes tall or short (thorins company shows this well). So I would just enjoy the addition.

Great work on the Elf and I think he'll fit in nicely, his pose isn't OTT like some non LOTR (and some LOTR as well) GW miniatures.

I didn't get the "GS". Could you explain, please? :)
You're right, I should have photographed him along other elves for comparison. I will do it soon and upload the pics. Should have thought of it in the first place. :oops:

More or less,you guys expressed my thoughts on this addition.

About the colour pallette I used, I tried to use colours that could make him fit in both, a Rivendell and a Lothlorien army.
I think I have accomplished that.

Always loved the model, wished I'd picked it up when it was still available!

I'd be interested to see him alongside some lotr models :)

I think Hodush means Green Stuff. I love the look of that model myself, it's one of the ones where I've been considering ordering it for quite a long time, even though I don't really collect elves.

Post subject:  Re: paliouras' WiP and/or Showcase. Elven Stormcaller . 01/0
Yeah i just meant Green Stuff - it wouldn't take much time using green stuff to add some elven armour to him if you wanted it to fit in a bit more.

This guy looks like Hugo Weaving..

@Hodush
Hahaha. I feel like an idiot for not getting that.
I don't know though, I felt that it was suitable enough and I was worried in the case I wouldn't make it right. :oops:

Here are some Uruk-hai that "travelled" to Australia last month through eBay.
