After I started I got a line on someone doing repros of the elan merch set of LOTR figures and will be ordering the Fellowship figures so apparently I'll have 2 "Gandalfs" now.
I layered on liquitex acrylics with flow aid and just used some basic colors so all the shading is mixed colors. I used high flow sepia to muddy the back edge of his cloak.
I've decided to mix colors instead of having a huge library of specific colors. I think back to all the money we spent on Humbrol paints at the cost of purchasing cool figures.
I like this figure but like most sculpts from the '70s it's pretty crude in some areas so good blending and shading results are difficult for me to achieve.
A couple of pics with his friend.
