They're great Joe. I think the Rangers... ranger is spot on for Aragorn, as is Gandalf. Definitely close to how I imagined them the first time round. Sadly, I watched the Bakshi LotR movie at an impressionable age and am surprised every time I see Boromir wearing trousers! Respect due for the freehand White Tree shield.

Four years is a long time to paint 9 figures (or actually 12 if you count the 3 discarded hobbits), but really, aren't these the most important 9 in the collection?

I don't know - that's not far off my top speed!

4 years not bad at all, and nice PJs to boot.

Well done.

Good work.  I really like the Boromir figure.

Gondor has no trousers. Gondor needs no trousers!





Nice one, Joe. Always good to see people's fellowships. I started one in the early 2000s and still haven't finished mine! I'm short of a Gandalf as I don't much care for the one I obtained at the time. He's clearly a White, and I'd prefer a Grey. :)
