Well here are the three Trolls in all there ‘orribleness! Barrels and sacks are from antenocities and are resin. The base is a McFarlane Ozzie Osbourne as a werewolf toy.

I decided (so I didn’t have to paint a fire) to have the trolls just setting up their cooking fire.

I had thought about Bilbo, and Gandalf, I had even thought about having the trolls painted to look as if they were turning into stone sort of half skin colours and half stone colours (there’s an idea for someone?) with an old Gandalf figure raising his staff at the dawn.

But in the end…….

On second (or rather third) look, how did you create those realistic trees?

I agree with Master Estele… crazy ways are best ways to make new words on diorama scale…. 😆 I would make only trolls on stoned version with Gandalf and Bilbo and dwarves eating sausages on trolls barbecue

That’s the one Gildor, and that also answers your question Master protozeus .

Unfortunately with the £/Euro exchange rate at the moment I shan’t be buying extra GF figures so some of my ideas will have to remain just that, unless someone else takes up the ideas.

I really like that diorama. I didn’t like the trolls much, but now have seen this they start growing closer.
Very well done Master ddaines!

Beautiful! I think the best thing you can say in this situation is that I saw this diorama setting back to the book. It is as if he were reading it again! Congratulations, Master David!

Simply wonderful, Master Ddaines. Excellent atmosphere.
Our Elf again proved that his mind is still intact.
Just one thing there’s left to be said:
William is holding mutton, Tom is holding a hind leg of a horse and an amphora of red wine … at least that’s what The Man told me. Here good old Tom seems to be spilling some milk …
Sorry, I just tried to find something to criticize

He is certainly spilling something, but I would hate to ask him what .
