About the Project
With the release of Middle Earth Battle Strategy Game, I've decided to jump back into the system. I've always loved playing Lord of the Rings, and have always considered it to be the best rules set by Games Workshop. It also helps that the miniatures are nicely sculpted as well. I managed to purchase a job lot of a friend a few months back when there were wild rumours floating around regarding a possible new set of rules for the system. This project will cover all my painting efforts in building several armies along with heroes.

Some more finished miniatures
I’ve been blasting through painting as much as possible and they’re up to a reasonable table top standard, but I’m not happy with the end result, so I’m going to take my time with the hero/villain characters.
I’ll only paint the units fast, as long as the heroes and leaders are painted to a much higher standard I’m OK with that.
The Sauron miniature I bought from a friend, and it came base colour painted, so all I needed to do was some touch ups in areas, add a wash for shading anf finish off with some high lights.
Harad Wip
I’ve started some Harad infantry, and I’ve decided to paint them in colours associated with the desert. I wanted a more camouflaged look and feel to them, the sort of colours they would wear if they were fighting in their homeland.
I’m working on a single unit to begin with then will add further units to this warband at a later stage.
