A while ago I picked up some neglected and damaged Easterlings for very very cheap. They were dusty, assembled poorly and in need of some love. I gave them some love and they will be the start of my Battle Company. I think this will be a great way to get into LOTR Miniature Battles!
I hate painting true metallics, it is something I have never mastered so the technique I used was as follows:
Prime Black
Drybrush Vallejo Gun Metal
Drybrush Vallejo Silver
Drybrush Vallejo Old Gold
Drybrush Vallejo Gold
Wash Secret Weapon Armour Wash
Pick out the odd edge with Vallejo Gold
This lads didnt take to long, about 3 x 1 hour sessions. Pretty happy with the results, basing was probably the longest stage.

I need a tad more mat varnish on them |
Easterling Archers |
Easterlings Sword and Board, will probably make one of these chaps the leader |
Easterling Spears |
Lovely job and nice to see them brought back into action 🙂
