    I love seeing you tackle simple and achievable tabletop armies. Not jaw dropping golden demon models or single space marines to such a high standard you think “yea go on spend another 200 hours on the other 9 men in that squad”. So thanks dude its an absolute breath of fresh air for content ❤

      Hahahaha yes exactly! I don’t think any of those guys have armies to play with, even though their work is stunning, they’re just in a different part of the hobby than army painters! Glad you’re enjoying the content!

    Middle Earth Monday lets goooo. I'm glad you're giving yourself a break and painting something relaxing and quick. That quick win sounds like a great way to start the week!

      Yeah it’s a nice way to start rather than getting bogged down with a difficult model! Thanks so much!

    Loving the return to Middle Earth - I started my Pelenor fields box but have been wantinng to get back. (My Army of the dead are hexwraith flame and white drybrush - but really god shout on the metal, wish i’d done that).
    As for Model - the Witch King is my favourite from the box

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  Год назад

      Yeah I think the box came out at a strange time for all of us and it was hard to get it finished for some of us! Yeah I think the witch king will be pretty popular to see done!

  • @MLiskindagay
    @MLiskindagay Год назад +2

    Cool! I really like that you do entire box sets, not just armies. I’d love to see orcs next

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  Год назад

      Yeah there’s so many different types of models especially in this box, would be a waste not to cover them! Orcs will be on the way soon!

  • @williamamely7038
    @williamamely7038 Год назад +1

    Looks very good. Definitely they should be the easiest army to paint, and base. Thanks for sharing.

    • @MediocreHobbies

    Great video! As someone who doesn't enjoy painting, I really love simple but effective paint jobs like this. They're oddly satisfying. I'm going to start a Chaos Space Marine army soon with a similar scheme, but just with some dry-brushing like you mentioned, and some airbrushed glowy bits.

    dang that is quick. i often pass by that box when i was in my local GW shop. maybe i should pick up one.

    • @MediocreHobbies

      It's a really cool set with a great mix of models to try painting!

  • @madmerlinsart

    7:34 my original models I did with Nihilakh Oxide and white drybrush, but seeing this I might have to go back and repaint them.

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  Год назад +1

      That sounds awesome too though! It’s all about what tone you like best, there’s no right or wrong colour if you’re happy with them!

    Im not sure I'll ever get into LOTR but I love these videos. Im much more interested in The Old World. Cant wait to see you cover it if you decide to get into it.

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  Год назад

      Oh I will definitely be covering it, counting down the spilt seconds til it’s released even though I already have a million models I could be working on for it right now! I love it’

    I think I used the original version of Hexwraith Flame when I did my Army of the Dead miniatures - and again, it was super simple with a light ulthuan dry brush over it at the end I think. And it looks great! One of my favourite instagram posts is my Three Hunters leading the charge with the army of the dead and King / Heralds to mimic the landing scene in the RotK.

    Do you varnish in Matt or satin ?? Looks great and the best video I’ve watched on painting these mini 👍🏻

  • @jamescox5945
    @jamescox5945 10 месяцев назад +1

    Hey Andy love your LOTR content! How much would you change or add for the new King of the Dead with Heralds models? I would say a video may be needed but I fear it could be a waste of your powers 😅 Thanks again mate

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  9 месяцев назад +1

      I would int touch them. Just base them up and leave them as they are.

    It’s a nice simple scheme, would you say tesseract glow would work nicely?

    • @MediocreHobbies
      @MediocreHobbies  Год назад

      It would give a different tone, it depends what you like the look of best!

  • @birger6239
    @birger6239 9 месяцев назад

    • @MediocreHobbies

      Just personal choice, you could easily do that with leadbelcher if you wanted!

    Tip, instead of 2 abadon black layers just do a black legion layer, takes seconds and requires 1 coat to cover

    Sure its fast but it loooks boring. If I may offer a more vibrant method.
    1. Prime bright white
    2. Apply tesseract glow
    3. Light dry brushing of white
    4. Apply Pylar Glaciar
    5. Light dry brush white again
    Super easy and looks way more vibrant and interesting.
