About the Project

Digging out my old Lord of the Rings miniatures I cumulated over the last 20 odd years. First I want to make an inventory of what I own and what I'm 'missing'. Then I want to freshen the already painted minis up and get some paint on the rest.

Some brave men, Aragorns and Boromirs:

The next model is from The Hobbit line, Radegast the Brown.

And last but not least Treebeard the mighty Ent carrying Merry and Pippin:

That’s me almost done for this faction, only four more models to go. I hope to finish tem somewhere next week.

This time around I finished the Hobbits of the Shire blister and I touched up Farmer Maggot and his hounds, 3 Gandalfs and 2 Sarumans/Sarumen.

Here are the pictures of Lobelia Sackville-Baggins and Paladin Took:

Fredegar Bolger and Hobbit Hornblower:

Farmer Maggot and his hounds:

Gandalf on Shadowfax, his face is quite deformed. I have a spare copy of the mini which has a better defined face. Maybe I will it somewhere in the future.

Two Gandalf the Whites on foot:

Here’s the starting point of my Forgotten Kingdoms faction.

Some are painted and need a touch up, some are new in box and have to be painted from scratch. I also bought some extra Hobbit Shirrifs, Hobbit Militia and the Hobbits of the Shire.

I made a little bit of progres since my last post. I touched up Arwen and Frodo on horseback fleeing the ringwraiths and I painted up Haldir.

Before:

Arwen and FrodoArwen and Frodo

Haldir had to be cleaned up with some soapy water and the flash had to be removed.

And after.

Arwen and Frodo:

And Haldir:

Only one model to go, Gil-Galad. He is already on my painting desk.

As mentioned in my last update I went for the Elven Kingdoms next.

Here are some before shots:

GaladrielGaladriel

There were 8 models that were only primed, so I painted them in the same colour scheme as the 24 I already had painted. These 24 got a touchup with some washes and a new rim on the base. I now have 12 High Elf Warriors and 24 High Elf Archers.

I also gave Galadriel, Lady of Lothlorien a little touch up.

The second model I haven’t painted yet. I’m not quite sure what the best strategy will be to sell this one. Painted or unpainted?
