As embarrassing as it is, Vaiuri, I didn't paint a dappled effect... I think that's just the dodgy prep work I did. It's nice to know that it looks somehow intentional in the photos.
Thanks Viruk. The mounted Aragorn had a better face than the standing one - half his face had melted away. Never again will I paint Finecast. It's a shame as I really like Lord of the Rings and wanted to put more of an effort into them than using them as a good testing ground for NMM. At least my NMM is now much better than it used to be.
