Lurtz for the Amon Hen diorama and One-Ring August Painting Challenge is now finished:

I went for a little more red skin than I first intended and instead of neutral browns on the clothing I started from Dark Flesh or Scorched brown, which have a little bit of red and yellow in them, respectively. The armour is still quite dark but I decided to keep it that way after all. I'm still not happy with the arrow feathers, they are supposed to be warg fur (!) but they just don't stand out enough, but otherwise I'm really happy how this turned out eventually. This Lurtz will be part of my Amon Hen diorama, there's still Legolas, Gimli, dying Boromir and a couple of Uruks to do.
