Hi all, I'm creating a diorama with Legolas as you can read in the title, my question now is, because of all the spare bitz and pieces I don't know what to use, so I made some options wich you can choose from, tell me wich you think fits best, but remember for your vote, there'll be added some bushes etc aswell.
hope you enjoy!

here are some pics to give you a better idea:

I'd go for the one with 1 orc and the rocks. 2 orcs could make it to crowded.
Nice work so far

One orc simpel is fine. It would be awasome to make Legolas have his front foot on him... :-D

I'd also do maybe an orc or two in front of him with an arrow through his head. It would make it look a little more motional and cool imo.

Thanks guys, glad you like it! :yay:

anyway, I've been trying out some things, and I found a nice combination of both orcs and the statue, I won't be able to fill all gaps so if I use all three the bits the diorama will be filled in nicely IMO, here's a picture, what do you think of it?

I like the way it is looking so far. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Where is the diorama meant to be? Amon hen? Pelennor Fields?

Nice one... Spear's edge on the rock would be greater i think :wink:

@ General Elessar: it's more of a random place, I'm making it for some people who helped me a lot lately, and I want to thank them with this

greets.

I don't think a random place is such a good idea. It may result in lowering the "realistic-ness" of the diorama.

oh well, I'd say it looks like Pelennor then, just a flat ground with some bushes, dead orcs lying around with arrows in their backs, like in the movie (: those who I'm making it for never really saw the movie so.. XD it's a long story why I'm making this for them, it's a story spread over 2 years, I don't know if you have the time for that but I don't

but I'll tell you why I picked Legolas for this:
the people I make this diorama for are in the same archery club as me, and let it be coincidence that the name of the club is the same as our point-eared elf friend: Legolas
so there we go, I thought he'd be the best character to represent that

and because they never really saw the movie, I just made a random diorama with him. Even if I'd made it Amon Hen style or something, I don't think they'd see the difference (:
