It looks great! I like the design of the bridge! Mine is going slower than I hoped. Cold weather slowed me down. Your stairs will make it much easier to place models for the scenario. |

Even your test pieces have more attention than most peoples final piece. One thing though, it seems the final piece will be made from foam board, am I right ? This wouldn't take much playing on before it got damaged ? |

@OMW: glad you like the bridge... there was only a briefest glimpse of it in the film, and I have actually no idea where it should lead to. Apparently, the Amon Hen scenes in the film were shot in multiple locations, so there is no coherency in the overall layout of the area. I'll do some testing this weekend to figure out how the board should be set. I should also cast the mold soon. @Gandlaf: me and my friend play nice, and we seldom get into fist fights that could damage the terrain But seriously, foam, foamboard and depron are rather durable, and with a coat of latex paint on top, they cannot be damaged by placing and moving minis on them. Only if you accidentally hit them with sharp objects - but then again, there's hardly any material that could withstand that without getting cracks and bumps. Foam terrain can certainly withstand acccidental dropping better than plaster casts, I assume. In any case, the damage is more likely to come from storage / transportation rather than gaming. So far my Balin's tomb has seen several battles, and it has withstood well. @SouthernDunedain: I have no plans for the terrain as such, but given my fondness of narrative scenarios, I do think each piece will be used occasionally even after the campaign-related game has been played. All this depends of course on my ability to find storage space for all of them... in the end, I may have to sell something away, too. |

It looks very good. You have made a lot of progress. I like the damaged columns. I remember the scene in the movie but I do not know where they belong. The small curved stair is also a good idea. I am going to have to find a head. I did not get one when they were in production. Amon Hen looks good. What mold making product do you intend to use? The Helms Deep columns look good too. |

Looking very nice. But did we expect anything less!? |

I cannot agree with Mertaal any more. |

@all, thanks for the comments! @OMW, I'm using RTV silicone rubber made by a German company called EFCO - that's the easiest for me to source by just walking to the local hobby store. Comes with a 400g can of silicone and a small bottle of hardener to be mixed in. |

The molds are looking good and there's nothing like a deadline to get a project moving. |

I need to think about it a bit more before I start on the next element. I have been inspired to up grade a few elements and start a Scouring of the Shire campaign.At least my figures are painted so I can work on the terrain for the Shire and he Seeing seat Scenarios. |
