Frodo Baggins

My dad has asked me to paint him a Fellowship of the Ring, so where better to start than with the Ring Bearer himself. This is the first Frodo I've painted that I've actually been pleased with, so I thought it was worth noting down the colours I used for reference:

Skin:

• Base: Cadian Fleshtone
• Wash: Guilliam Flesh
• Highlight: Cadian Fleshtone
• Lips: Bugman's Glow
• Eyes: White Scar & Abaddon Black

Hair:

• Base: 50/50 Dryad Bark & Rhinox Hide
• Highlight: 33/33/33 Dryad Bark, Rhinox Hide & Baneblade Brown
• Edges: Above + Cadian Fleshtone

Jacket

• Base: Rhinox Hide
• Highlight: Rhinix Hide + increasing amounts of Baneblade Brown
• Buttons: Zamesi Desert

Waistcoat:

• Highlight: Skrag Brown

Trousers:

Most of the above ideas were taken from the following videos, modified slightly for the colours I had available (particularly my lack of Gorthor Brown!):
