I might try different colours for the next one and maybe different effects to see how they look. Might be helpful to be able to distinguish them from each other on the table..cwheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733801848876870014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1255331752332867387.post-50933785885605566192015-04-02T12:43:10.386-07:002015-04-02T12:43:10.386-07:00It must be a trick of the light or something but a...It must be a trick of the light or something but all but the last photograph looks like the figures are standing on a sphere ! (could be me too though)<br />It's very diffficult to pull of what is in effect a completely black figure, but you've done a very good job of it without it appearing grey ! I wondered if using both gloss varnish for highlights ans matt combinations would work ?<br />Zabadakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649765350412145174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1255331752332867387.post-50310523243358079072015-04-02T01:57:56.534-07:002015-04-02T01:57:56.534-07:00Thanks a lot.

I think we are always more critical of our own efforts than those of others and it takes a lot of nerve at times putting your own efforts up for public scrutiny! cwheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733801848876870014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1255331752332867387.post-2723959072980805082015-04-02T01:42:05.229-07:002015-04-02T01:42:05.229-07:00I do like my new backgrounds.

There are a couple of dark green ringwraiths type figures on the GW website and I really like the look of them. I will try it when I get more figures!cwheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733801848876870014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1255331752332867387.post-50638951022269850342015-04-02T01:31:13.885-07:002015-04-02T01:31:13.885-07:00I might do the next one dark blue high lights.

Sometimes, dark blue is suggested for highlighting black hair; perhaps this would work on such robes as well?Colgar6https://www.blogger.com/profile/07636662295301222390noreply@blogger.com
