The Mirkwood Soldiers in their Heavy Armor attire.

And here is the Silver Guard, Elites that gain a bonus when fighting next to Thranduil. They'll be hero units limited to 1 battalion.

Perfect Models!!I love Mirkwood and how it was portraid in the Movie!Teir Soldiers look so damn cool and the Silver Guard are even cooler! They are so cool,I always loved Silver more than Gold!

Hmm wierd, maybe brighten up a little bit the officer armor? Now at the first glimpse I think it's Aragorn in his Black Gate armor.

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

I agree that a little brighter color will be nice,and may be a little bit more Gold/Yellow to some Parts of the Armor as in the Movie,and may be to make them differ from the Standard Soldiers their Clothes beneath the Armor and the Cape Color can be that Blue-ish Color from the Movie!?

 

And about them as a Unit,I think they should be able to Mount as in the BoFA t obe abel to follow Thranduil on his Elk and may be to make them differ even mroe for Standard Soldiers they can have Helmets when Mounted as in BoFA and no Helmets when on foot like in AUJ and BoFA(when they guarded Thranduils tent)  And may be even different hair Color like in the Movie they had more like darkened orange or something like that!

RoR you should make the helmet more closed up for them.I saw those designs on WETA concepts.The archers had more opened helmets than the fighters.

[Rider of Rohan]

I'll brighten it yea, the Weta concepts are to inconsistent to follow we went with the movie's final botfa's look.

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

How about my suggestion RoR ! :-) Sorry for bothering! :-)

[ThrandyBanned]

Me,Ror And Dain have Lord Of *something*.

Anyway,back to the topic.What was your suggestion Dain?

He made it three posts above yours.

[Rider of Rohan]

Well I'd like to keep the helmet and colors as they are now .
I may make a mounted version limited to 1 later.
Mounting and dismounting from a battalion can be very buggy.

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

Well I like the colors red and silver as metal and color are my favourites and look epic when combined! :-) I was just thinking to differ form the Regular Army but the Armor Color is enough! :-)
And oh I didn't know about the Muont dismount problem! :-) Sorry then ! :-)

[Echo]

Awesome work, this mod's really getting somewhere

[Rider of Rohan]

These guys are pretty much done, thanks to Nazgul for letting me have the helmet he made for his Iron Hill Dwarves.

Wow!Can't wait to play this!
RoR did you texture the helmet or is it NaZ's tex?
Anways,good job!

[Rider of Rohan]

It's his texture, I just modified it to suit the rest of the armor and did some extra shadowing.
EDIT Updated the Render, I've fixed the proportions to be more Dwarvish and also added proper hands!

[King Dain II Ironfoot]

The perfect Iron Hills Soldiers are finally here! :-) The only thing I think can be somewhat better is the Shoulder Armor! :-)
But I can only say congratulations RoR :-) :-)
