That is a beautiful little dio Polux, I love Dragons too, I have them all over the house, really well imagined and executed.

I wouldn't worry about Tolkien, he made his world up so why can't you.

That's looking great Polux, I'm about concerned about the huge beast at the right hand side of photo 3 though!!!

Hi Ian!

It's a kit I found in a little shop in Barcelona. It was abandoned in a side of a dark stash!!

It's a original kit of Lord of the Rings, for a strategic game of it. And are the original ruins of Osgiliath.

In fact I bought it without think about this diorama. The other day was looking it and say...mmm, could be nice to put here! And here is!!

Thank you to all!!!

I'm glad if you like this "new version".

My intention is to turn all the ruins under very vegetation and water.

Ps: you all see the leg of the Ness monster..... :)

Have fun.

Hi Tony!

Needs help!! You are our Dragon master!! Any advice to paint it?

I have to say I'm afraid.

Now the Dragon have a primed coat, one red and dark Brown wash.

I'm thinking to do another wash, this time with dark red (not acrylic, with oil paint now), and the a dry brush finished (light red).

It's Ok?

Thanks

Hi to all again!!

Here you have a new update pics.

I love all about relative fantasy themes, and I'm enjoying so much doing this little dio!!!

The ruins are painted with:

Primer coat of German green brown mix with grey, then a filter for NATO tanks and finally a dry brush of titanium white (oil paint).

The lake with:

Primer coat of grey, then only some parts of the soil with light brown (to do tonalities) and finally a light green.

Thanks for looking friends!!!

Regards

Polux

Hi all!!

Today I do a coat of matt varnish on the ruins, and primer the figure of the Bard.

I trying to go fast...because today I heard on TV, the next day 14 (december), we can see the new film!!! The Hobbit!!! I'm wishing go to the cinema!!

But the problem is....better finish this diorama before go to see it, I know myself and then I will change all... Ok, have two weeks, I will try!

Need help from the Tolkien fans (if you want to help), this picture of the Bard, is the original paint of his clothes? Is described in some place (I don't read the Hobbit friends...sorry).

Mithril Humans from Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, highly collectable metal figures.

Thanks to all!

Looks about right to me Polux...... leather armour/tunic, leather full length boots and a dark coloured (green/blue) cape .... don't think i ever read what colour his leggings (tights) were.

just found this one. can't wait for you to finish this polux. i am a huge tolkien fan and love seeing anything tolkien related. it's coming together nicely, good luck finishing it, can't wait to see it.
 
Polux I know nothing about Tolkien.

But what I do know is this is going to be one superb, well built model. Full of atmosphere.

Big 5* even now!
