Gutbukkit's Middle-Earth: Moria Goblins
« on: December 25, 2014, 12:54:57 PM »
So after selling off most of my painted Lord of the Rings miniatures I decide it was a big mistake and wished I hadn't. Thankfully I managed to find 80+ Uruk-Hai of Saruman stashed away (I don't remember having so many, I'd already sold a similar quantity of painted Uruk-Hai!). Saruman and his White Hand Uruks have always been my favourite.

As I also sold the rule books I intend to play games using Saga rules and the battle boards made by Frank.

Printed out and laminated ready to go. Just need to buy the Saga rules now lol


Here are the first pieces of my new project.

Perfect the bases are top too

I stupidly sold all mine off for £50 and spent well over £300 replacing it  :-X

Cheers. I feel your pain. There are a few bits I'm trying to replace, searching on eBay for items not going for silly prices. One good thing that came out of it is that I'm far far happier with the painting of these than the paint job I did on the others, done 12 years ago.

A little update:

I managed to paint 7 more Uruk-Hai warriors over the Christmas period. That's 2 points worth done.
I have 8 bowmen started, Lurtz and 8 pikemen on the painting table ready to do this weekend.

Lovely paint job - not too dark, but definitely evil looking.

After rekindling my love for LOTR, I'm wanting to do a small orc band as well.   Very inspiring!!
