Painting Workshop: Galadhrim

June 2009·pp. 96–101

THE SHORT VERSION

The workshop offers both rapid company painting and a more deliberate four-stage approach. Gold armour, contrasting cloth and pale horses follow the visual language of the films. Alternative schemes show how to depart from that palette. A final Haldir example rewards the completed troops with more carefully blended character painting.

Galadhrim Warriors

Twenty-four plastic Elves form the core of a Lothlórien force. Different weapons allow the collector to assemble several infantry companies. The release expands the army beyond a small group of named heroes. It is presented for the newly released formation game, with skirmish updates promised for a later issue.

Haldir and Rúmil

Two brothers offer distinct leadership and character options for the Galadhrim. Haldir revisits a familiar Elven commander, while Rúmil broadens the range of heroes. The figures complement the new plastic troops. Their formation-game uses are discussed in the main feature rather than supplied as complete skirmish profiles here.
