Aragorn, King Elessar: MESBG Painting Tutorial

"The day may come, when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of Fellowship, but it is not this day!
An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the age of men comes crashing down, but it is not this day....This day we fight!!"
Okay so we got a tad carried away with our introductory quote!
Today we welcome Aragorn, King Elessar to the channel in all his kingly glory and splendour! A phenomenal sculpt which truly captures the Aragorn we see in the films at the Black Gate.
With this comprehensive kingly guide you'll be able to create a kingly model on the tabletop to lead your forces to a kingly victory over the enemy!
Have we said kingly enough yet?
We hope you guys enjoy the tutorial and as always...
Happy Hobbying!!!

I just got the metal version of this model on eBay so this will be a great guide for when I eventually paint it, amazing paint job.

[@PlanetMithril]

The metal model is my fave variant! Jealous! Would love to see how he turns out once painted!

[@Mattw1987]

@@PlanetMithril will be a while before I start it yet ha, I have so many other models I am dealing with fun times!

[@ric1194]

How come you didn't base him like the rest of your gondor/minas tirith minis? Surely he looks strange amongst the others?

[@noahgreany8046]

Yeah I think I'm gonna base mine with the stone minas tirith base

[@PlanetMithril]

Aaaah do not fear, this is the second Aragorn Elessar we have, the first one I painted pre KZbin, so this Aragorn was painted specifically for the video

[@OTRMiniatures]

Nice job. I've got a few aragorn's I need to paint

[@PlanetMithril]

Haha everyone has plural Aragorns right?

[@jymmylol74]

I´m having a blast painting the fellowship with your tutorials, have you considered doing tutorials for Thorin´s company?

[@PlanetMithril]

Oh 100% Thorins Company is coming, both variants, the unarmoured and armoured

[@MVeminor7]

I'm really diggin your style and videos! Great work

[@PlanetMithril]

Glad you like them!
