So this was one of my favourite when it was originally released and I finally managed to get my hands on it just recently. So here is my guide to painting Aragorn.
First I base coated him with Abbadon Black.
I then dry brushed it with leadbelcher.
The next layer I added was some Khorne red, for the shirt and tunic. On the tunic I wanted a hint of red to show through in the right light which is why I deviated from the usual dark brown base here.
Next I watered down some Mournfang Brown and painted this over the tunic. To finish the tunic I added a wash of Nuln Oil.
For the face I used Cadian Fleshtone. You can also highlight with Kislev Flesh.
For the hair, facial hair and boots I mixed Mournfang Brown and Abbadon Black.
The gauntlets and scabbard were painted with Abbadon Black before highlighting the trim with Runefang Steel. I used the same layer paint for the blade of his sword.
The highlighting for the elven scabbard on his back was done with Gehanna's Gold.
Sorry this post is a little short today has been a little hectic and I ran out of time for all the detail I would like to include.
I soon hope to have some battle reports up and for those of you who are 40k fans I will be at a release event for the new rulebook tomorrow night. Even though the new rules (or lack of them) are being rumoured I am looking forward to getting my hands on the new books, and some pizza!
