Siege of Minas Tirith / LOTR

[Estarriol]

tis indeed. Or Exeter Legionary, I'm not fussy PAW is just a bit closer if you're in Kernow.

I'm loving the easterlings, especially that standard - simple yet striking.

My Easterlings are now finished, net up will be Khand



Also finished is my mounted Rohan Force, next Dol Amroth

Nice pics. Yeah, go ahead with those Khandish troops. I'm really curous how you will paint them. So far, things look really good.

Finally an update with my Khand completed apart from the bases.



Some more pics on my blog

Great work on those!
It must have taken some time to paint all those suns though...

Thanks. It did take a while, I tried first with creating transfers but the banners are too dark for that, they look better in the picture than real life

It is good to see someone else give into the LOTR madness.  

Here is my LOTR Battle of Pellenor Fields game from last year:  http://lostpict.6sided.net/2011/09/30/battle-of-pelennor-fields-lotr-lunacy/



I never painted so much in my life as that year.  Keep it up!

Cool. I used to own that issue.  Great table set up.

Great stuff, Dr. The Viking and I were just playing LotR last night and there was much frothing and furtive plans made

Plans are usually dangerous and expensive

Can't believe there aren't more replies to this thread. What utter lunacy you have embarked upon! Spectacular viewing.

Looking forward to seeing these forces develop, and stealing all your ideas too. I likewise have a stack of old LOTR stuff waiting in the wings (or more accurately, crammed together in tatty cardboard boxes), and all I need is a push over the edge. One day, my precious...

There are many excellent threads on here and it is taking me a long while to do this

Especially as the good Dr. mentioned they've cut the contents of the boxed infantry sets by half

eBay here we come!

Another LOTR 'nutter' - welcome! I too well remember that article and have been gearing my collection over many years to culminate in a big Minas Tirith siege... I'll be using a Lord of The Rings variation of 'Armies of Arcana' to refight mine, the majority are non GW figures, except for characters and monsters and will have armies of between 150-400 figs for each contingent including 10 converted Mumakil, scratchbuilt siege engines and ladders and my own version of Grond etc.
The prelude to the Siege of Minas Tirith is of course the fight for the Rammas Echor

I am speechless (in Elvish, Entish or the tongues of men)!!
