I agree, I think I prefer a more "wintery" base than a lava one. I am not necessarily basing this themed army off of any battle that occurred in the Silmarillion. I guess I just want it to be as if the houses of the noldor assembled their forces on the Anfauglith. The addition of ice/rock/snow on my bases should contrast nicely with the bright NMM armor I will be painting all of the elves, so it should come out nicely. |

Those snowy bases are indeed very beautiful. And in Anfauglith certainly it snowed at times. |

Intriguing technique but looks to work very well, are they not too malleable when painted (causing shipping)? |

These Blackroot Vale archers were made about a year ago and have lasted remarkably well. The foil used is quite stiff and holds its shape really well. I have used it for flags and pennants, horse armour and other similar uses. Our Tesco and Poundworld Plus has 100g containers of the coffee for £2.50 just now. |

Did you know these new Hobbit/LotR manufacturers? Get a look here: http://unreleasedminiatures.net/ https://www.facebook.com/Ridgeback-Mini ... 487226813/ https://davaleminiatures.com/ |

Yep! I knew about Unreleased miniatures and Ridgeback. I think we should leave the discussion about them here though. According to the admins, we should try to limit discussion on these third party miniature makers. Here's the announcement: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=32255 Thanks though! |

And did you know these ones? http://norbaminiatures.com/es/31-la-batalla-del-anillo OK they are Teleri, so may be not exactly fit with your purposes - but may be you might consider them for the role of Nargothrond elves. P.s. No copyright problems here, I suppose, as they declare the product for the "Battalla del Anillo", differently from the previous ones. |

That's lovely - I particularly like the subtle touch of gold! |

Great painting, Feanorthenoldor. I'm looking forward to seeing your 1st age army painted! Also, I hope you may reload the best among your photos, that are no longer visible. |

Very nice! I agree, I'd like to see your older posts. Damn Photobucket, screwed up so many forums. |

Your NMM armour and your cloaks are absolutely superb. |

thanks guys, yeah, NMM has been something i've been working on for the past few years. It's slowly getting better and better. The hardest part is not really the blending, but the realization of where the light hits on the armor and how to make it look like armor. |

Looks good! The blending on the cloak is excellent! Your NMM has really improved over the years, it's been fun keeping up with your progress. Keep up the good work! -PoW |

@PowerofWill. Thanks! I can say the same about you as well! So, I decided to move onto Fingolfin's house. Colors of this house consisted of Royal Blue's, silvers, small amounts of gold, black and white. This is my painted interpretation of his armored bodyguard. Here is a video as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2zcNSO ... e=youtu.be |
