I vote for Mithril !!!!!!!!!
October 9, 2009 at 2:17 pm #7344To be fair, the GW version is plastic. But I think the Mithril version is also better than the metal version of Gandalf that GW puts out!
October 9, 2009 at 3:23 pm #7345First of all I have to say that I do like this project you’re about to realize very much, Master OriginalAragorn. The conversions, the painting, your creativity and the idea.
As for Gandalf figures I regard the Mithril LR1 (and the LO-version of it) as being the best.October 9, 2009 at 4:02 pm #7346Thanks Master Theobald!
My only regret is making his staff metallic. I might repaint the staff to be a shiny, dark wood..
And I agree – the LO1 and LR1 are very nice looking models!
October 9, 2009 at 5:31 pm #7347Yeah, the LR1 looks good. Eventually I’ll have to buy the entire LR 1-10 set, just to get my dirty little fingers on it!

October 9, 2009 at 7:04 pm #7348Rhuooommmm …. huommm … that staff is wooden for sure, Master OriginalAragorn … as Ents do know … a shiny surface of the old wood will be good, as it might give the impression of being used and touched for a long time …
keep on, please, and do not regard this as an advice … as everyone around here will interpret the colouring of figures on his/her own way … that’s what I really do enjoyOctober 10, 2009 at 7:27 pm #7368OK, the final product is here.
Gandalf has arrived on the scene (with his wooden staff!) and is about to break up the party!
Be aware that the blade laying on top of the stone is Orcrist – which is why the Great Goblin is in such a fury! Have fun.

November 10, 2009 at 6:34 am #7758Hi George !
This diorama is a picture of one great idea. Excellent. Just make footprints in the snow. Just to look a little more realistic.November 10, 2009 at 8:21 am #7759A great piece of mount Gundabad (I suppose), George. Looks amazing good. A nice composition as well.
BUT, that snow diorama is marvellous. Absolutely fantastic mood. Nice orc-conversions also.
Brilliant work, Master OA !!!! I like it very much.
PS: this is the day of short senteces. :rolleyes: That´s why I am still asleep. Though I sit here at my office desk.November 10, 2009 at 10:52 am #7761fascinating diorama !!! What did you use for the snow?
November 10, 2009 at 11:52 am #7763Great work Master Aragorn!
November 10, 2009 at 2:31 pm #7765Thanks everyone!
Christoph – I’m learning from the best! I “stole” your idea of using natural rocks that I find. In this case, my employer is missing a few rocks from around the side of the office building… :rolleyes:
Theobald – I used this “ballast” package from the railroad hobby store. They make different types of rocks, effects, etc. It’s labeled as “Sleet/Snow.” The only problem is that it’s not very “powdery.” It’s kind of gritty. But maybe that’s more realistic for hard, semi-melting snow.

November 10, 2009 at 2:38 pm #7767George, I have realized that! And I feel honoured. You see, the result of this “real” material is fantastic, isn´t it.
Keep on steeling . . . 😆November 22, 2009 at 6:51 am #7957My daughter has a birthday on Tuesday. So I painted these for her. They’re not my BEST work, but I think she’ll like them.
Don’t worry – she’s getting video games too!
