Wow, brilliant, amazing, and that doesn't even begin to explain it.
In my opinion, the best article I've ever seen to do with Ol' Bombadillo!

Yet another brilliant article to add to your collection, Bart :P

I really loved the picture layout... gives the article a really neat feel. Plus the diorama pics at the end were the cherry on top!

Flaberghasting job as usual :)

Great article, Bart! :yay:

I really love this model, it really is some of your best work. All of the backgroud information and pictures were wonderful, it's something you normally don't see in a painting guide. I really do love this article Bart, I think it may just be your best. :wink:

Another thing, as I've said before... That article desrciption is the best ever, no contest. :-D

Thanks all for the nice comments :D

Sadly enough I didn't snap pictures while I was painting Goldberry, only a few pics of sculpting the sitting version, but not enough to write something about it... :(

Really nice article.
Excellent article end diorama, and clever use of the seated hobbits. Also very nice conversion of Goldberry by water.
I was intrigued to see what looks like Bob Hoskins as Tom. Shame he didnt make it to the screen.
I know what you mean about the feather. When I come to painting my figure I may consider shortening feather and bending it to a more upright position?
regards
Scott
