Re: Project TMM 2020

This is a Master set Fabrice.
I like very much the fact they have same colour schemes for  different clothes.
They look same kind, still not the same army that way. Wel done.

Re: Project TMM 2020

Oh I completely agree with Milo! Did you arrange them this way on purpose?

From left to right:
Sky blue: details, secondary, main ( > > > )
Violet: main, secondary, details  ( = x = )
Yellow ochre:  details, almost main, almost secondary ( < < < )

So you switch colours jumping perfectly between figures guiding the eye, great composition smile If you let me a suggestion... since they are all looking and pointing something on the rigth side.. I would move them (exactly same arrangement though) a little bit more to the left, so there's more air on the right side.

That is a very nice trio of figures and the backdrop compliments them nicely smile

Re: Project TMM 2020

Thank you for your feedback, gentlemen, and yours suggestions.

The diorama that I have in mind may take a long time to make because there are other figures to paint. And it will not be with this decor.
I hope you will enjoy.

Re: Project TMM 2020

Hello MithrilNautes,
I haven't had much time to settle down to paint lately.
Which is not the case for everyone. I took a look at FB. The production of some is impressive. Breizh power ! lol
I can still continue to prepare miniatures.
It takes less time and especially less unpacking.
Maybe that will make my return to brushes easier.
So I find myself with a small white army on my desk.
The beautiful days are approaching, the colors come alive with ... let's hope so

Re: Project TMM 2020

Hello Mithril Nautes,

Chance of timing Master Gerold ? In any case, great job a new time !

I took advantage of a little free time this weekend to move forward on a project  started one week ago.

Click to close


For the horse, I tried to paint a dappled iron gray dress.

Click to close

The color scheme chosen for the jumper is not suitable, it is not in the photos. I have to rework it. Case to follow therefore...

Personal message : Youre welcome Master twirch.

Take care all.

Re: Project TMM 2020

Thank you Thingol for your feedback.
You put a little pressure on me to continue with the project.
I am a fan of miniature russian vityaz, I admire their paintings of horsemen.
I thought to myself why not ?
But the Mithril are not 54mm and currently I don't have too much time for painting.
The dapple of a horse is not easy to achieve on this scale. Evil took me ! I am not satisfied with the current result. I still have a lot to do on the rider and on the horse.
I would like to make a Gondorian pattern in free hand on the rider's tunic but again, it is a technique that I do not master. Roll on the end of the Covid! I will thus be able to benefit from the advice of an extraordinary painter who is part of the Chevalier du Centaure Alessandro Natale.
Do not hesitate to go and admire his achievements.
In the meantime, here are mine hmm

Re: Project TMM 2020

That's excellent work indeed. I really do admire your choice of colours and your skills in painting (not for the first time) ... perfect that seems to me. Keep on, please.
I still keep some spare ones of that figure I once received from Jim Corless (you know the good-old "Time Machine") - those with the head not turned aside but straight ahead. Those conversions are not much widely spread (which means never released). - I think they're somewhere here to be seen in that Mathom House of M. Delving.
Just contact me (the tree) i might be full of surprises for you ...
take care, please

Re: Project TMM 2020

What a fantastic paintjob here !
I love the horse, and als othe grey scheme you managed to put on full miniatures. It is really really good to me.

BTW, master Ent, I am very much curious about this figure you mention which I am not aware of.

Re: Project TMM 2020

Great paintjobs! The black/white/grey color pattern looks very well.
I tried to paint such a grey horse with white dots myself a few times, but the result was unsatisfying to me. Yours looks wery well succeeded to me.
For comparison, here is mine:

Just  to complete what I mentioned. As I said there's only a very slight difference concerning the pose of the head. Have a look,

Re: Project TMM 2020

Good morning all,

Truly this little Irish factory is full of anecdotal achievements. Here is one of the lifting ! Many thanks to Théobald for sharing one of his treasures with us.

Thank you very much for your compliments.
Do I really deserve them ?
Photos do not always faithfully convey the chromatic reality. But I am glad that you are adhering to the color schemes.
I have always associated the idea that I could have of the armed men of Gondor with that of John Howe. The discovery of the representation of soldiers on the high towers of Minas Tirih, which he made in 1990, immediately resonated with me.

Click to close
Today, I think I couldn't paint the Gondorian Mithril any other way.


A very long time ago ... while Jacques, by espousing the Godorian color codes, had painted Pippin (and Bergil, ref M 196) I decided to make it exactly negative. While hers was dark with her uniform, mine would be bright, a little like that wonderful light that emanates from J. Howe's illustration.

Well, that's what I was hoping for ...hmm

Re: Project TMM 2020

just for the fun of it, Master Fabrice and Master Milo, too ...
...  just have a look here on MMP at the "Gondorian cavalry" to be found in the "Mathom House of Michel Delving". At the bottom of page 2 you might see some Gondorian riders. I received them a very long time ago from a very kind person.
Alas, just keep a smile on your face in these and the coming days.

Sorry, I see I'm in the wrong thread here ..
