Thanks for the heads up! I've edited it now, hopefully that's fixed it.


captain bloody fists - lovely work, especially on the Elves. Also love the classic Ringwraiths, and the Tainted looks great!

Oh wow. Great job. Thanks for letting me know you fixed it. I would have missed it.


Very well done there job Captian Bloody fists.


Sadly I am not contributing here. Trying to fight my depresion and instead of just painting sloppliy I am taking my time. You guys are motivating me and excited to try again. Please keep posting. Really loving what I am seeing.

Appreciated the heads up! Glad to be helping in a small way. You're doing the right thing taking your time with it and doing it right - you'll be infinitely happier with the results in the end! Looking forward to seeing the results!

That's me done and dusted with my Angmar forces now. 1000pts-ish - Twilight Witch King, Shade, 2x Warrow Wights, Burdhur, 3 Cave Trolls, an Orc Captain, 46 Orcs and an Orc Banner. Has been a fun project, and I'll come revisit it after Christmas I think to add in a Fell-Beast and Gulavar, plus the Dwimmerlaik and Tainted, I reckon.

Pics below (including recaps):

Oh my. Haanz you got my paint brushes hiding. That is a great job there. My brushes know what is going to happen now. .

Great job! Must look a fantastic army on the battlefield!

Got some models done for my WOTR armies.

Radagast, a Dol Amroth soldier, a Blackroot Vale Archer, and a High Elf Warrior

How was the blue on the elf cape, looks great!

Vallejo Dark Sea Blue, shaded with straight Drakenhof Nightshade, highlighted with Vallejo Turquoise.

Those are some awesome minis, midnightdeathblade! The High Elf looks absolutely perfect, although I particularly love the archer.

I've made a bunch of progress on my Rivendell army, mostly characters (Elladan and Elrohir armoured, foot and mounted, Cirdan, Erestor, Glorfindel robed foot and mounted, as well as adding a bunch of numbers to the army.

For a bit of a change though, I also recently finished some Dark Powers of Dol Guldur for a bit of fun.



Hope you guys like them!

Thranduil's Halls complete.

(I didn't see the bit of fuzz on Thranduil's sword, we'll just pretend it's action lines!)

Stunning collection mate!! Nice painting as well! Some unique models which I do not even recognise from GW site.
See Ur an elven friend. I am more a dwarf enthusiast but Legolas, Elrond and few others in the movies are on my favorites list also.

Some seriously awesome Middle Earth models in this thread!

I painted these a little while back this year; they are my best painted LotR models to date. 5 old metal Easterling Kataphrakts:

I mostly paint and play Warhammer 40k, but it was nice to paint some LotR models for a change. I just wish more people in my area played it. Neither of the two FLGS in my hometown ordered any of the new stuff because there was just no interest from the community.

Brilliant army Doug! That Thranduil is such an amazing mini. Come close to pulling the trigger a few times and i don't even have any Mirkwood elves.

Experiencing that lovely feeling when there's only three models left of a long term project to complete. Soon the three tier Mordor army will be finished.

Painted a ton of models last night after work in preparation for my group starting the Isildur's Heir mini campaign. Tonight - Arathorn gets killed!

Working on a list for Adepticon. I’m brand new to MESBG and have not played a game yet.

Here are 27 Hobbit Militia that I have completed over the last couple weeks. I also have the Three Hunters painted.

Bad pic, but I’m pretty happy with them for the time I put in them. No two Hobbits are exactly alike, something is different on each of them.

Nice to see such a variety of projects being worked on following the revival. That Mirkwood army is awesome.

About to dive back into some LotR myself, as was perhaps inevitable following the traditional Christmas trilogy viewing... Picked up a set of the original (mostly, a couple are later versions) Fellowship metals on ebay as well as the ft/mtd Gandalf The Grey, so I'll be doing those up to what will hopefully be a better standard than my original BGiME copies! Looking forward to finally painting the mounted Gandalf as well, such a great model that child-me could never afford with pocket money!

Pics incoming as soon as I have some finished...

As promised...

The first mini in my 'let's do this LotR thing again' project. Really more of a test, as I'll probably use the other Gandalf sculpt as part of the Fellowship, but still pretty pleased with it. And amazed once again at the likenesses on minis getting on for two decades old!



Any thoughts welcome!

Beautiful work.

Paradigm it is simply stunning! Great quality.

Aaand done:

Great painting Sir!
I assume this is in the Moria theme?

Pretty much. I'll be swapping out the Helm's Deep Aragorn for a Fellowship one shortly.

In other news, the new Theoden paints up a treat. Really enjoyed this one.

Brother got me a copy of ROTK rule book(2003) last year and its still in brand-new condition. We have more than enough games to be playing, and miniatures to paint, but if GW re-releases the Shelob set as plastic we might give the "In the Clutches of Shelob" mission a go. I'll keep this thread in mind and post up pictures if that happens.

More brilliant work Paradigm.

I have signed up for a tournament at the beginning of March.
Work begins on an all mounted Rivendell force. Pics as I go.

Updates aplenty!

I've been busy and done heaps of stuff for my Rivendell and my Angmar forces lately, and a couple other pieces too. Have been a bit lax with posting here over the past month or so, and there's a bit much to cover, so I've probably missed some things.
