I'm finding it hard to resist, I added to my Orcs with thirty odd Uruk Hai last week and have just won a Nazgul on EBay and am bidding on a Saruman at present. lol

I've just won Theodred on eBay.  ::)

I found the remnants of my battle of the ford project. I was going to do a conversion of Theodred but now find out 'they' produced one anyway.  :D Still need to sculpt a helmet on him. I've also found quite a few Rohan characters.  ;D

Found the bad guys too, a mix of Uruk hai scouts, orcs and feral men. Need some more Wargs.

Turning this into a generic LotR thread as it'll be better than spamming the board with multiple threads.

Due to an unbelievable amount of peer pressure I started making a hobbit hole (phnar phnar).

I don't have any hobbits (and I'm not going to  ;D) so I guessed at about 25mm for the door and used one of my bases for a templete.


Some wood and styrene stone work later, with the little addition of some of my Victorian round windows we have the start of a very presentable des-res in the quiet corner of Middle Earth  :D



There is also peer pressure to make Minastirith but they can go swing  ;D

cheers

That is a BEAUTIFUL start. I love the curved woodwork & the different angles of the stones. I'm looking forward to the ideas I can shamelessly steal for non-Hobbit projects. SO keep up the FINE WORK & make an Old Man happy...or not.

By the way, your user name goes perfectly with the song Bo Jangles. I only mention that because I can't get it to stop playing through my mind...such as it is.

Looking forward to seeing where you go with this one.
