Legolas a full PDF guide. Expert tutorial

Hi all and happy new year!
Here's a big expert tutorial of legolas(5 tutorial pages total) I hope you all can enjoy and take some tips and trix from:)

Instead of making two last part I compiled into one. Since some of the techniques of this clip has already been shown in other tutorials, but I thought it would be easier to follow if I included it into the eradicators as well.

Eradicators

Some eradicators I painted at an advanced lvl for the fulminators chapter. Did them in a reverse to give them a different appearance to show their fire support status along with their own style of helmets.
I've recorded the whole process so expect some tutorials of these in video format.
Note: Advance means easier techniques to achieve the painted result. It doesn't necessary mean it's a worse paint job than expert in some situations depending on how good one is with the technique and b...

One of my conversion projects

I can't say when I'm painting this one as I'm currently on my way to finishing many of the projects I've started. Since I've ...
