Hi all, for something a bit different, check out this massive diorama (only small fraction of it shown below!), links to pics and vids on my blog here:
http://chasseuracheval.blogspot.co.nz/2 ... iroma.html

New Zealanders from all around the country helped with this, including myself, each painting 40 or so figures.

Hi!

Hmm. I thought I hadn't released those photos of my new gaming room. Damn internet leaks. ;) ;D

An awesome display Markconz! Glad to see people still love to do this kind of event! :)

very impressive. What was the reason behind using 54mm?

They were good movies, as long as you weren't hoping to actually watch a movie based just on "the Hobbit".

It should have been called: "Tolkien; the stuff we like that didn't fit into the last 9 hours of film we made from this guys books."

Then it would have been brilliant, and accurate.

Cheers all, I think 54mm is just because it is more visible for a museum display.

Also not so much a fan of the hobbit, only seen first one so far!
