Description Well I've finally learned my lesson (it only took me three years) and started using proper photo background. It saves me a lot of trouble editing and adjusting backlight ...and it looks a bit better

This is one of my favorite scenes from the film. And I know its not exact replica of the scene but I had to work with what I've got.
Made it for a friend, a two meters tall fellow who is obsessed with dwarves

Wow, awesome. I painted Gimli myself, was pretty proud how I made it (I'm still proud), but yours is just fantastic!

Thanks, much appreciated ^^
And you should be pleased with your creations... don't fall into the trap of comparing with other people's work, just do it because you feel good about it

You're right. Even if it's a tempting trap, it's still a trap.

Nice one, I 've tried to reproduce the scene a week ago, have a look on my page if you want !
Do you sculpted some of the background or was it all from a game pack or something ?

I've seen it already, its very impressive
I wasn't really planning to reproduce the scene and was just looking to make a base to have Gimli stand out a bit more since he is kind of small (not that I would say that to his face).
I had to scratchbuilt the sarcophagus and most of the stone tiles (which are mostly covered anyway) and rest came from raiding my bitzbox.

Yeah I don't think Gimli would like to ear that he is small !
By the way how high is this mini ?

LoganGrimnar42 In reply to Arnolf [2013-03-07 23:18:29 +0000 UTC]

Its roughly 47mm while Gimli is 23mm

And I see someone knows their runes.
Damn, I was hoping people would ask me what are those funny things on his base ...so I could smite them down with a hardback copy of Return of the King

Now I hate you.
