        Black and white photos really gives a very disturbing atmosphere which gets married well to a kidnapping. Very appropriate in the situation :P
        Unfortunately, we can’t appreciate the painting work ;):D Only on the first picture : great job as usual :D

        Totally agree with you, Sevlag… I liked particularly the 3rd photo…

          Great idea, my friend, absolutely great idea.
          And we see, that the re-released PA minis fit well into “mithril”-world.
          Very moody . . .

            The Beornings are absolutely great in that surrounding and so is the quality of the pics … I’m not sure about your second attempts with black&white pics … my opinion was pointed out by others already:
            – of course, no chance to value the colours of the painted figures
            – it’s absolutely difficult to take pics of such small figures, especially in such a very dark scene … the appropriate light provided for such photos is extremely difficult to achieve, I think. That’s why I don’t like the flames in the background – that light is a bit too strong.

            Nevertheless, why not try to do something new (in terms of photography) – first steps are always the most difficult to take. I hope you do not misunderstand my comment on the second series of pics, but you also asked for criticism.
            So, keep on, Master Thingol :);)

              Thanks for all compliments dear friends for all compliments and criticisms. For sure that is difficult to take B&W pictures with optimal light on such a small objects, so I think that this would be my only experiment with mithril figures.

              Few of you know my other B&W pictures, and I think that I will keep my interests on the real world… :)

              News from the “Grandma’s garden” will come soon…. :)

                The problem isn’t about the brightness of the flames – it’s to do with the fact that it’s impossible to create 28mm-scale fire, so “real” flames always tend to look too large. Super pictures again, though – and super painting – as always. And really imaginative framing of the scenes. Genius.

                  Ah Excellent – I don’t know how I missed the snow-scapes, but they are wonderful. I like the B & W experiments as well ;).

                          …. and after almost 5 months I found today in the Grendma’s garden few angry ‘Helm’s Deep – Death to the Strawheads’ series and few Rohirims and guys from the ‘Helm’s Deep – Gamling’s Rally’….

                          I hope you will like the ambiance…. :)

                            Well done, my friend, well done.
                            What a crowd: That´s what I call: celtic warriors!!!!
                            Especially the stripes on the trousers are very much detailed.
                            Very busy that man! You become better and better.
                            AND KEEP AN EYE ON THE SPECIAL STANDARD, FOLKS !!!

                            PS: oh- Master Mornedhel left. Maybe he was blinded by the light . . .

                              Outstanding :D, Grandma’s garden back-drops, and Master Christoph’s painted back grounds bring Middle Earth to life.

                              This looks fantastic Nino, a great use of the figures ;)

                                The answer in this case: He is confused!
                                For sure! Which background? Painted by me? What?
                                This is Master Thingol´s thread . . .
                                I suppose, the consume of Master Barli´s scrumpy is to blame . . .

                                  I see many details in paintings I like. And surrounding concept is just marvelous.

                                  Bravo Nino, fantastique ! :D

                                      Respect, Master Thingol. Once again a very nice set of pictures showing a lot of well-painted miniatures in a wonderful surrounding. I also like those patterns of some of the Dunlendings very much, as Turambar already pointed out before. And, yes, the standard, of course.

                                            Hic! what do you mean confushed on Barli’s Scrumpy 😆

                                            What I meant it to mean was a comparrison of how the different backgrounds used by different painters – natural with Grandma’s garden, and hand painted with your own, can really enhance how MM’s look.

                                            Shtill!, musht get back to my Scrumpy, hic! :P
