Post moved from a thread Admiral Benbow started:
Just how what a young Hammers was up to about the same time:

WOW! :o I am stunned. Especially the last photo with the water is so beautiful.
-
Stunning stuff indeed!
So you were a bit into Tolkien then... :D
Any tips on what you did with the water?
-
Mithril figures! Still some the best ever made.
That water scene is indeed stunning :-*
-
Hey, very atmospheric, Hammers! I like all the little details you added to your vignettes. Great stuff!
-
:o :o :o :o :o :o
AWESOME!!!
-
That's two posts in a row of most impressive OLD work... :o
Not sure I should bother to continue posting my current stuff given these standards. o_o
-
Ah, old Mithril figures. Now I´m getting nostalgic!
Nice Hammers, really nice!!! :)

If you are interested I can open this old cabinet into my past to when I was a myopic Tolkien nerd. A lot of him withered and died after the recent movies, I am not sure why:

Didn't have anything to do with elves surfing on their shields did it... >:( ;D

From the title alone I would have guessed.... Attempting to bring cossack trousers to a wider audience. vis:

Nice, old-schooly goodness! I remember buying a few Mithril minis way back when. There was a great toy store in Ystad where I used to spend a few weeks every summer. They stocked Mithril minis, the complete Prince August moulds range, a bunch of the Fighting Fantasy 60 mm plastic stuff (my first painted Citadel "minis") and a whole lot of other fun stuff. Me and my cousin used to hike down there more or less every day to oogle at stuff and if we had been at our grandma's before, we might even have a little pocket money to spend. Thanks for that blast from the past!

Like looking in the mirror. I have quite a sizeable collection of Mithrils as I bought an almost complete collection in the US for pittance from a collector short for Christmas money.
If you did not know it already, I have the morals of a tomcat.
-
Great stuff.
I love these sorts of things, the ones that don't try to be like the movie, but try to be like the great 70's or 80's illustrators. Much more majestic and I am sure much more like Tolkien would have liked.
The movie is excellent, but I love the freedom to imagine it all for yourself. :)
-
The movies were @#*&! Hammers your stuff is GREAT! :-*
-
These are lovely, Hammers. Such a great sense of character to them.
I dread to think what anything I did at that time would look like now.
-
that stuff is realy nice .
I like it a lot.

Great Site, I shall be going through that for inspiration
-
Now this is what Tolkien should look like!
Thank you for posting those beauties, Hammers.
-
WONDERFULLY CREATIVE WORKS! Your pieces look like they came right out of the Brothers Hildebrant illustrations.

So this old tat of mine emerges again?! Well, I am flattered... I will not lie to you, I still now and again think of returning to painting these. I have quite a few painted up which I have not shown and even more I have not painted..
