Nice to already see much contestants, but one problem for me: as I'm using all the money I have free atm to buy some tickets for a rock/metalfestival, I can't afford new units. That means that instead of buying some easterling command crew, I'll be entering some rivendel knights.

Here is my banner bearer

Sorry about the red coin i need it there to hold the rider or he falls xD the banner is kinda heavy and i will only glue him to the horse when i finish paint him..

About the captain i will do a conversion later and i post him here

About the conversion even if i do for example a rohan warrior with 2 weapons , 2 swords... does that change his atributes if i use it in game? and i still can use it?

Looks nice! About the double wielding, that doesn't matter(if you have an opponent who plays for fun, not only to win, win, and win!), and in SBG I use High Elf knights doublewielding all the time as galadhrim knights with shields, as no shield but heavy armour on the model would still be realistic for his defence, and the double sword could be used for shielding in real.

Ooh, what bands?

@ everyone else
I'm glad to see so many entries this time again. I think I will have to sit out this time, but I might be able to find something to paint.....I'll have to look in the 'ol backlog.

Soundgarden, The Cure, Linkin Park, and much more. Two days from round 14:00 to 23:00, all you want in life!

Just a shame there is no Green Day, Metalica or Foo Fighters for the finishing touch

Or megadeth, Sabaton, black sabbath......

(black sabbath is doing a concert in britain (the download festival) there will also be Metallica performing The Black Album, Megadeth, Billy Talent and more. That would be an awesome show.

Would love to visit that one to, but in the Netherlands we have Pinkpop to do the same!

Here is my first work in progress shot.

Sorry it isn't great. I've painted the skin and done the first coat of red.

I know the feeling Chis, I have used a dumbell to hold the two halves of a warg together whilst the glue dries.

\Very nice entry, can't wait to se your finished banner.

Wow Bilbo, you have the rare Rohan Captain. How did you get that?

Oh, I've had him for quite a while now...figure this is as good a time as any to throw some paint on him.
