Hi all, After many years of living vicariously, I have finally decided to join in your community (please be kind). I have an extensive collection of miniatures, probably about a third finished, and currently slowly working through the LOTR scenario books (heavily modified in places) with a friend for fun and building scenery to fit. |

I've been painting the models since 2005, on and off - I had to move around a lot with work so they would get boxed up and forgotten about for long periods, but only in the last two years have I knuckled down and started finishing them and actually playing the game... Really wish I'd done it sooner, but I have these models for life now, and can enjoy them at my leisure! |

Welcome, welcome! Feel free to ask anything! I'm curious to see some of your work. Are you planning to upload some pictures? |

Just got to pluck up a bit of courage... I've had quite a few eye operations over the last seven or do years, so my fine detail is a little bumpy on some of my older models, but that is all settled now and I can paint without a magnifier. |

Nice work on Weathertop and Khazad-Dum! I also love the hanging bridges from the trees, and that awesome elven tree at the end! Spectacular, really nice work. Edit: And welcome to the community |

Thank you, I'm kind of learning as I go along, using various articles in BGIME/Sourcebooks and on sites like this one, but modifying them to be modular, or at least movable. The Mallorn tree I made as a table centre for my wedding, I just have to do a bit of modification to make it game table worthy again, just in time for the Seige of Lothlorien. |

How did you guess? I'm getting bored of waiting for the sun to come out here so I can go outside and do some airbrushing, it doesn't look like it will be today... |
