There’s one very clear benefit to me taking part in the
Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge this year and that is it’s made me nearly
complete my Isengard force for The Lord of the Rings SBG. I had one warband
complete and one on the way when I started however now I’ve managed to cobble
together 3 full strength Uruk Warbands (with captains), Lurtz with 5 Scouts, an
Orc warband (and the makings of another) and a full Warg rider Warband.
Woohoo!
Anyway my latest (and last) submission to the challenge was
the leftover Uruks that brought the warbands up to full strength (12 models)
and also a final captain.
Now before anyone starts no he isn’t blonde and he doesn’t
catch awesome waves dude! Believe it or not I painted his hair middlestone with
the view that it would come out as a mucky blonde/white as below:

It was a test piece so I can try out the colouring and then
go back and correct my Ugluk model who as you can see does not have completely dark
hair in the films (Saruman must employ some hair stylist Orcs!).
Once the challenge is finally over I’m going to take stock
of my accomplishments and do a group photo, so stay tuned.
