Huzzah for Dol Amroth!  Gorgeous painting, and thanks for bringing the love to Imrahil's men.  Love the choice of full chain hauberk, too!

That swan knight is awesome! The orcs are also really great :-*

And orc number 4 :-) The running one.

The bases aren't finished yet, I haven't decided how I will do the bases.

After a long drought, a small update.

New pictures, zoomed in mercilessly :o Next time, I will try to do the faces better.

For LotR (Battle Companies) I will use the left one as a Blackroot Vale archer, the middle one as a Clansman and the right one as a Local scout or Wandering Woodsman (Community edition). (All Reconquer Designs miniatures)

I am going to paint more and maybe I will use them in the future for the new Barons War "fantasy" expansion.

They look very nice! I especially like the pattern on the blue tunic on the spearman on the left.

How do these compare with more heroically scaled minis? I like them lots, but I've gone the route of picking miniatures from a slew of fantasy ranges for my LotR project, and they tend to be more chunky in comparisson with the usual historical fare...
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Thanks!

It depends, which heroic fantasy miniatures do you have in mind?
