Tidoco2222 offered to share his knowledge with us, and wrote a tutorial about how he painted a Gondorian from the Lord of the Rings range. Check this article for many interesting hints ? especially about painting with metallics.

I'd like to say a couple of things first before I get under way,
Firstly I'm going to start with the basics of how I hold the mini for painting and each step will have an image to show, hopefully the images will show each stage clearly enough. I think this will be of some use to some of you.

Secondly I will not be going through the basing of the miniature as this is going to end up on a diorama suffice to say that your usual basing methods are perfectly adequate.

Thirdly this guide hopefully will be of some use to painters of all levels and even more hopefully you will all get something out of it.

Ok here we go,
First up is the image of the items needed for the project

Here is a list off the paints used in this stage of the project.

Skull White
Chaos Black
Shadow Grey
Codex Grey
Ghostly Grey
Boltgun Metal
Chainmail
Mithril Silver
Black Ink
Red Gore
Elf Flesh
Dark Flesh
Dwarf Flesh
Testors Dullcoat (any matt varnish will suffice though)

Add to this the usual selection of paint brushes sizes 3/0, 4/0 and 5/0 and we are away.
