High Elves

"The rider's cloak streamed behind him, and his hood was thrown back; his golden hair flowed shimmering in the wind of his speed. To Frodo it appeared that a white light was shining through the form and raiment of the rider, as if through a thin veil."



Blue Cloth:
1) Start with a Regal Blue base-coat
2) Layer on a mix of 4:1 Regal Blue:Enchanted Blue
3) Repeat Step 2, decreasing the amount of Regal Blue in the mix each time, 3:1, 2:1, until a 1:1 mix of Regal Blue:Enchanted Blue is reached.

Grey Cloth:
1) Start with a base-coat of Chaos Black
2) Paint Codex Grey over the cloth, leaving the black in the recesses.
3) Highlight the cloth with Fortress Grey.

Silver Armour:
1) Base-coat the armour with Chainmail Silver, leaving the Chaos Black in the recesses.
2) Highlight the armour with Mithril Silver.

  2. I have Elrond & Gil-Galad waiting to be painted, and I plan on getting another Captain and banner too, as well as another box or two of the Last alliance, and some metal Warriors (for the spears)
