LOTR - Balrog wip

3 days in and perhaps twice as long to go...

I brushed him using Codex grey, Fortress grey and Skull White. Sorry there's no picture, the camera was being repaired. Still have to do the whip his wings and head details along with more body detail like the glowing parts.

So far...
Flame; Skull White, Bad Moon Yellow, Blazing Orange, Blood Red and Red Gore.
Skin; Chaos Black and Scorched Brown mix.
Horns; Graveyard Earth, small bit of Bleached Bone.
Skin; Tallaran Flesh, Ogryn Flesh.

That is amazing. Possibly my favourite up to now. It looks like heat is coming off my screen.

Thanks guys. Werner, yeah, I used it on his body wings and face using a large paint brush, i think it saved me at least a day's painting. I didn't use it on the flames though.

I was just thinking when I was posting it up, god help Werner if he get this for his fellowship play through :P I found it a very difficult piece to paint in the beginning because of its size, weight and not being able to finish it in a day or two but things came together once I had began his face, thankfully.
