The country of Tolkien

A subject about middle earth!
I am going to carry out essays on the different peoples who live there.
I am currently trying to purify my sometimes excessive use of colors a little.
So don’t hesitate to be critical!

Wauw, very colourfull indeed but i like them very much. Especially the archers are perfect ! Not quite sure about the yellow hair of the last one but the rest of the figure and the shield are amazing. Great paintjob :yeah: :yeah: :yeah:

I second that, once more a super paintjob. I think it is interesting, that you choose bright colours and not only green and brown, black and white, like in the films.

I couldn't agree more with Jan's opinion, atalante. I only know these Light Alliance figures from the PSR website, but it's clear that, as good as they are, your superb paint job has taken them to a higher level. :drool: :drool: :drool:

Great job, congratulations! :thumbup:

Super paintjob, but I agree with Dykio. The Uruks are a bit to colourful for my taste. And the vikings are fantastic but are fantastic vikings and not Rohan warriors for me. Only my oppinion of course.

But you can paint them as Rohan warriors ;-)

But as Vikings they are great. I especially like the contrast of atalante's orange and black in the shields.
