Please Nob provide me a good ale before I visit Moria again.
May 7, 2010 at 11:44 am #9857Nob, I am thirsty…
For those who like Rivendell, I added in my art gallery some pictures took last time I visited an old friend of mine in this heaven.May 7, 2010 at 12:43 pm #9861As for me, I’m making rapid progress with my Orcs of Mordor and the last eight Rohirrim archers. I am seriously touching up the paint work of the Uruk Hai figure you see in the last set of photos I shared. His time in the Vault of Doom was not a happy one. Experimented with some new tones for their cloth too. I am pretty pleased. Just need to complete this five today and then get the last four done over the weekend.
Then when that lot is complete, I am going to do something I have not done in a long time.
I’m going to play with them :p

May 11, 2010 at 1:51 pm #9921I agree Master Ent!
Is it, because Master Barliman is not here, or is it the change of season?:lol:May 11, 2010 at 2:05 pm #9923a little soda maybe? with some ice cubes directly from Mount Gram?

May 18, 2010 at 4:29 pm #10043Hello? Anyone here? Seems that people are very busy in other rooms. Well, lets see here . . . ah yes, this must be where barli keeps his best ale.
May 18, 2010 at 4:48 pm #10044Right, I’m back, and I notice that that young scalliwag* Nob has been giving out drinks “left, right, and even centre” (a good description of the new government here in Bree, as far as I can make out) without once asking for recompense!
But never mind, I’m feeling freshly invigorated by my travels. All the wonderful fresh air has blown the dust from my mind so that there’s more room for my one remaining brain cell to gambol like a newborn lamb.
It’s also good to see that in my absence Hirluin has won the Fellowship vote, and I’m so pleased that I shan’t complain about the fact that in the one month I didn’t suggest him he won! Who did suggest him, by the way? Maybe I could get them to suggest one of my other oft-proposed favourites, such as Elfhelm, then maybe they’d win as well!
*Does anyone know what a scalliwag is, by the way?
May 18, 2010 at 5:01 pm #10045mmhh have you seen the pics of the new Bolg standard bearer and Gandalf & Gwaihir?
Well as the person who first suggested a Gandalf & Gwaihir some time ago I must say… I am very disapointed…
well I can understand why no Gandalf on eagleback… but have you seen the head and in particular the beak of Gwaihir? it does not fit at all the scale or type that Gwaihir has had in the past at all…. ([mith]M301[/mith]) and the feathers are…well sorry to say but it seems mister Tubb is not very good at making eagles
(it’s not often that I criticize that much…)May 18, 2010 at 6:03 pm #10046Yes, the eagle’s pose looks very stiff and wooden. Chris is unquestionably an excellent figure designer – one of the very best – but none of us are perfect at everything (personally I’ve always had an aversion to his hobbits). Oddly, however, despite the faults I quite like the Gandalf/Gwaihir combo. But then I’m in a good mood at the moment, and plan not to let anything upset me for a while yet. Or at least, not until I can afford another holiday.
May 18, 2010 at 6:46 pm #10047I havent gotten a newsletter yet. Where have you seen the pictures?
May 18, 2010 at 7:09 pm #10048I like the Eagle a lot.
However, if I want some Eagles to game with, I’m going to go buy them from Ebob Miniatures (same goes for the Spiders!)

May 18, 2010 at 7:30 pm #10049well the newsletter was sent by Michael this afternoon with the two pictures

But the eagle looks fake. Painting will have to improve this mini.
Master Barliman ? Do you have any liquid left ? -
