Hello All, After years of wanting to get around to painting some LoTR guys I have finally gotten around to it! Thought I would toss up a few pictures.   Lots more on my blog if you like, not sure I got the pictures showing right. http://michaelswargames.blogspot.ca/201 ... rings.html Thanks; Mike |

I have found that the img tags don't seem to work as well with Google photos as they did with photo bucket. But I am not sure what to do about that? Anyway thanks for the comment! Going to try out a game this evening. Thanks; Mike |

The trick is to right click on your image - then select "Copy Link Location" Then when posting here, use the "Img" button which creates the image tags. Between the img and /img ones paste the link. When you preview and post the image it should work!

Good job! Are you using the thinner Renedra bases rather than the GW ones? |

Ya Renedra all the way I find the thinner ones look better, and I put a self adhesive magnet under them and it is easier with the flat ones. I really like the cobble bases also, but they don't have the right size for mounted which is a problem. Thanks; Mike |

Got a bit ore painting done, another Isengard warband this time with a Captain and the rest of the command. Didn't see any rules for the drummer on a quick look so not sure about that, I think the 4 guy command sets were more made for War of the Ring? Not really sure. But looks really cool anyway.  http://michaelswargames.blogspot.ca/201 ... ngard.html Thanks; Mike |

Nice work. There is a preview option i think when you are posting so you should be able to see the post before making it. |

These are fantastic. May I ask, why do you put a magnet under the base? |
|

| Post subject: | Re: Panting Lord of the Rings |
That's how I store and carry them around, I have a plastic box with metal in it, so with the magnet I just put the in and they stay put. I find it better them foam as it can save space and long thin things like pikes don't break as easy. Works great for me. Thanks for the comments! |
