Awesome work LW. I love the way you do your armours.
Got a 404 on the orcs though?

LW-
I found the armour on the elves too, well, orange for my tastes, try re-highlighting the armour and leaving the Chestnut Ink or whatever it is in the recesses.
The WoMT armour was great, but the bows and spear shafts need a little tidying up. For the bases try using stones with more texture, If they were scaled up they would be in front a 1.5 feet high boulder.
You could try using what I use. Cork. Rip it to shreds ad use the larger pieces for rubble/rocks etc.
I got a 404 on the orcs too.

One of the advantages of not being a LOTR fan; I don't know what they're supposed to look like, and to me that's just a cool effect.

"You know when you've been Tangoed!"  Perhaps a bit strong on the orange there. You could go over with a few thin golds and just leave the wash in the recesses. Like the bow stings, good effort on them. |

Tried thinning it down so it just adds depth rather than an overall glow? I know reaper sell ink extender, I'm sure you must be able to get a similar product here, or try magicwash formula (water floor polish and flow improver mix, don't ask for recipe I forgot it  ) Never used inks myself so not sure if they're ok to thin with just plain old water. I'd be wary of getting tide marks |
