Prince Imrahil and Knights of Dol Amroth

Next up for my Gondor army is Prince Imrahil and 6 Knights of Dol Amroth - Imrahil was in desperate need of being repainted. Other than painting the white on Imrahil's cloak, I really enjoyed painting these guys. 

Warriors of Minas Tirith Part 1

My first batch of Warriors of Minas Tirith, all armed with Spears and Shields.

Osgiliath Veteran Conversions Part 1B

My first batch of Osgiliath Veterans fully painted, including a group shot with Faramir; I really enjoyed painting them. Click the images to bigify.

Faramir, Captain of Gondor

As a slight break from painting Goblins, I've painted up Faramir to lead my Gondor - which will be representing the defenders of Osgiliath as they are portrayed in the Return of the King. I'll be using my Gondor army to improve my metallics and faces. Since taking the pictures, I've repainted Faramir's face, the white tree on his armour was a pain to get right.

Osgiliath Veteran Conversions Part 1A

My first 12 Osgiliath Veterans, converted from normal Warriors of Minas Tirith. I used a hobby knife to hack away parts of the armour, and then Green Stuff was used for the cloth and cloaks. One Veteran has an Easterling Sword and another has a Haradrim Spear. I have another 24 Veterans that need to be converted.

Battles in the Deeps; Part Fourteen - The Goblin Army

My army of Moria, as it currently stands. 52 Goblins (including the Prowlers), 12 Wild Wargs, Durburz, Groblog, the Dragon, the Spider Queen, a Cave Troll and a Wild Warg Chieftain. In total this comes to 1115 Points.

So what's next? Well for my Moria army, I still need to paint up a Cave Troll, 2 Shamans, a Captain, and around 30 more Moria Goblins. I've also got Escape from Goblin Town, so will be working on that as I finish my Moria army, and I'm also starting work on my next army, so stay tuned for updates.

Battles in the Deeps; Part Thirteen - Wild Warg Pack

Some more beasts for my army; a Wild Warg Chieftain converted from a plastic Warg, and 12 Wild Wargs. To make the chieftain, I cut off the Wargs head and cut its body in half, repositioning it slightly so it looks like  Games Workshop's Wild Warg Chieftain (without the dead body on the base), and used Green Stuff for the rock and hiding the large gaps in its side. The Wild Wargs are just the standard Wargs with their body halves mixed and matched for as much variety as possible, with four different colours of Warg; dark brown, light brown, dark grey, and light grey. I plan on getting more Wargs, and adding more of each colour.

Battles in the Deeps; Part Twelve - Spider Queen and Swarms

So as I continue to blast through my Goblins, I decided to paint up the beasts part of my army - starting with the Spider Queen and Swarms. The colour scheme for the spider queen was based on this image. I look forwards to using her on the table!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to everyone for your support! And a happy first birthday to my blog!

Battles in the Deeps; Part Eleven - Groblog, Prowlers and Goblin Archers

Another Goblin update from me, slowly getting through the rest of them (about half way through) and I can't wait to get more of the monsters done! Whilst I'm not particularly fond of the Groblog's crown, I do like the model overall, and I really like the prowler models, really enjoyable to paint :)
