Great work! Those Davale minis are ace. Fit quite well with the GW versions.

Nice one! Really like what you've done with Eomer. You've just reminded me too that i never got around to buying those ring bearer minis. They're still available, so I really should.

I, too, have recently joined Davale's Myminifactory tribe. I've only printed a few of their not-Numenoreans so far, but I like what I'm seeing. Here's hoping they do a nice Dragon Emperor that will fit in aesthetically with the GW Easterlings.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/1/23, including modeled wargear options):
Dark Angels: ~15000 Astra Militarum: ~1200 | Adeptus Custodes: ~1900 | Imperial Knights: ~2000 | Sisters of Battle: ~3500 | Leagues of Votann: ~1200 | Tyranids: ~2600 | Stormcast Eternals: ~5000

Gondor

I'm busy converting a crusader into Turin Turambar, I've finished painting him. Now I just need to convince my brother that he wants to sculpt a dragon for Turin's helm. I'm also finishing my crusader Gondorian army.

I have been working on re-starting the Mordor army I got when I was a kid.

I have been working on finally finishing some unpainted Orcs I never got around to and I have re-painted and re-based some of the old, badly painted minis from my childhood army.

So far, I got two warbands of Orc Warriors, a Ringwraith, an Orc Captain and a Banner Bearer. I still have a handful of Orcs and 2 Trolls to go.

I found an old blister with the Knight of Umbar (my favorite of the GW Nazgul characters) and I am planning to get the Battle of Osgiliath box and split it with a friend.

That should give me a decent army to start playing some games with friends again. I am also thinking about getting two of those Orc characters from FW. They seem fun.

Any pics?

Had a lovely surprise this morning as my brother obtained the original GW books for Fellowship and Towers, which completes a set as we already had Return of the King. I think all told...£4.50 for all three books!

All are pretty much the same book with changes in units and scenarios, but its nice revisiting GW from the days of 2001 to 2003, where one remembers the wait between the movies. The first book's cover doesn't match the other two books, but you can't beat Alan Rickman on his horse - dramatically back-lit - delivering you the ultimatium "join us...or die."

I don't feel that we have the time or money to collect the model range on top of the other games we have on the go, but tokens are always an alternative. When not playing friends and family I do like to indulge in some solo gaming, and giving thought to adding Rangers of Shadow Deep to this little collection...

Casual gaming, mostly solo-coop these days.

Hello all,
I've recently been on a huge SBG kick. Dug out my old miniatures that've been untouched for over 15 years, and have been touching up paintjobs and repairing damage to get everyone fighting fit.

Also decided to take some of my historicals and base them up for SBG and just use them in place of some of the GW model line that I don't really like. Kinda inspired by Wargaming in Middle Earth or whatever it was - those guys on Facebook who do LOTR stuff with no GW minis. I'm not quite such a purist but for example I prefer mail clad Minas Tirith over plate, I like them to look a bit more like the Watchful Peace artwork than the movie design. And I think Easterlings should really be medieval Russians and Steppe people, not what is in the movies, which I think work better for Black Numenoreans.

Also been hacking up and milliputting various Schleich monster figures for some First Age monsters. I'll post pictures when I get around to it, but I'm not a great photographer tbh so I'm never sure of the value of it!
