Painted: Denethor


After a number of heroes for Mordor it is time for someone for the forces of Good. Although Denethor is not a likeabla character with his blatant favoritism towards Boromir, his fatalism and later insanity, he is still the Steward of Gondor.

The Model

This old, metal model does not have too many details to paint. I've been joking that Denethor strides to war clad in his chainmail nightrobe. This copy did not have too many snags and flash and it primed fairly well.

The Scheme

  1. Slapchop underpainting
  2. Guilliman Flesh for the face
  3. Pallid Wych Flesh to highlight the face
  4. 1:1 mix of Blinding Light and Occultist Cloak for the hair
  5. Black Legion for the overcoat, robe under the chainmail, boots, gloves and straps
  6. Basilicanum Grey for the fur on the overcoat
  7. Leadbelcher for the chainmail nightrobe
  8. Retributor Armour for the pommel and hilt of the sword
  9. Nuln Oil for the metal elements
  10. Stormhost Silver drybrush for the metal elements
