thanks matey

sticks are the key: match sticks, lollipop sticks, cocktail sticks and kebab sticks. The problem is I am running out of the later :x . this may delay things a bit

I like the tower. 8)
:?: Have you tied to use the wider sticks that the doctor uses :?: I think they are called tongue depressors sometimes. They are wider than Popsicle sticks. I use them for garden gates, grave stones and doors. They might make good vault shields.

thanks guys! :D :-D

@gothmog the werewolf: are you sure? its pretty strong already as i used a hot glue gun and some pretty sturdy balsa wood... did you mean the horizontal corners or the verticle ones?

All the corners should be supported with triangles, something I leraned many years ago, well before I got into LotR.

The Tower is certainly coming on very well, good work :yay:

I'm also liking you're Vault Wardens, I'm a fan of making metal/FC models out of plastic ones, and yours are looking promising, what are their spears made out of? Also, how do you plan to do the shield ones, by the way?

thanks mate :D I'd cerainly recomend rohan scenery in particular as its really easy. All you need is some sticks and some glue, i dint even have to plan it (which is probaly why its so wonky :P ) :)

jolly good, i supported most of the conrers and its pretty sturdy now.
thier spears are made out of carved-up sprue and I'm making the shields out of a really dense cardboard material

today i got some clay shapers through the mail so i decided to test them out by making a cloak for boromir:

its IMO a bit of an odd sculpt so i found getting the movement right quite hard, please speak your opinion and say if you like it or not.


also, here's a dwarfy beard that i did up in ginger:

in other news: i have added a few more walls to the tower. :D


C&C very welcome
