FB memories informs me it is 4 years to the day since I painted Eowyn, so I'm taking this as some kind of good omen!

Still a WIP
Middle-earth Orc for Midgard Heroic Battles

These guys are in the "getting there" stage, who knows when they will actually cross the threshold

90percentgeek.bsky.social•2 days ago

Interesting! Where are they from?

jonbrodsky.bsky.social•2 days ago

they are from black tree design via mindtaker miniatures - I'm not sure who the original designs are by, maybe harlequin or heartbreaker?

Found it! https://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Mordor_(Harlequin)#LR1017 Harlequin LR1017 Orc Soldiers II

This is an accurate depiction of my mom. It'll be a present for her birthday. Though since it's based on a LotR mini, I assume it qualifies.

90percentgeek.bsky.social•1 day ago

Absolutely qualifies. Does you mum like Lord of the Rings, or is it more the accuracy or the mini that she will like?

wannipower.bsky.social•1 day ago

Definitely both, though I would give the depiction the edge here. What will delight her the most though, is probably the fact that it's crafted by her child. Parents love that. Even if the child is nearly 40.

I did something similar for my mum who was a huge LotR fan - when the game first came out I did her Arwen Vs the Ringwraiths at the ford. Wish I'd kept it after she died.

I've had fun. I've had fun. I wish there was an edit feature.....

that's pretty cool, I do Lego in my free time, but have thought about painting minis, just never got into it for whatever reason. This is cool, though.

I always love seeing Middle Earth minis! Here are some of my most recent. #MiddleEarthMonday

Some of the participants in our Battle of Five Armies game at The Other Partizan last year. GW minis with some conversions and a good dose of Oathmark orcs.

I love the book cover stylized lonely mountain

mogsymakes.bsky.social•1 day ago

Thank you! I just wanted to do the book version, not the movie version, and this was the ideal way to frame it. #miniatures #wargaming #nerdlings #midgardheroicbattles #tolkien #spreadthelard #thehobbit

christinag.bsky.social•1 day ago

That's awesome! The layout is exactly how I had it in my head from the book fyi

mogsymakes.bsky.social•1 day ago

There’s a couple of full blog articles chock-full of photos here: https://mogsymakes.net/going-large-with-midgard-heroic-battles-tolkiens-battle-of-five-armies-part-1/

mogsymakes.bsky.social•1 day ago

Thank you. Dave Hunter, who gm’ed the game, created the scenario directly from the book, and I referenced Tolkien’s drawings to build the terrain.

Thought I had more LotR minis photographed but here's a Haradhrim, a Bilbo and a Sam

geruish.bsky.social•2 days ago

Those look great

90percentgeek.bsky.social•2 days ago

Thanks!

In the middle of a Rohan Army. High Elves put to one side at the moment. These models are 20 years old.

Some ancient LOTR minis (painted almost 5 years ago) I do have more pics of them but I have uh mixed feelings final results (cause you know painted them while just getting back into the Hobby)
