Lovely desaturated sallow skin on the goblins, sheer brilliance on the dwarves!

Very nice units, and a joy to see Middle-Earth getting so much love lately!

The project is off to a fine start, and the figures look really nice.  :-* Very much a style I can get behind. I have a project along these lines in the "trying to get to" category.

Great stuff  :o :o

I have done the dwarfs many years ago, but did not knew there are so many new sculpts  :o
Thanks for that.

The Goblins are resting in my backlog, because I am undecided about the skin  :(
I like the way you do the skin very much  :) :)

cheers Thomas

I can only second (or third ;) ) all of the above statements - I yearn to be gawking at some more ME-themed candy!

Very beautiful and interesting initiative: congratulations.
We also played several battles between Dwarves and Goblins and against Orcs too, set in our fantasy world of Naran, in which we planned to insert an Era, the middle one (of 3), inspired by the literary fantasy worlds of Middle-earth (aka Midgard) and Narnia, and with elements of the Hyborian Era (Conan) and of Thuria - Valusia Era (Kull).
For our battles we use the Fantasy Warriors wargame, expanded version "Naran".
These are the links to the pages of the battles we photographed (we don't always do), which we put on our site. As miniatures, in addition to those of the Grenadier (now produced and sold by Mirliton - Florence), we also use those of any other company, provided they are compatible in scale and size.

From the Mirliton website, in addition to the original Fantasy Warriors Rules, you can also download a great regulation for war campaigns for free:

Amazing! Love how well your orcs and dwarves have turned out. Especially those dwarf shields.

 Excellent work. Very inspirational! The dwarfs and orcs have very distinct colour palettes. Well done indeed
