Post subject:  an unexpected journey (Knight models Minis)

Welcome. To my unexpected journey to middle earth I hope you all enjoy. ok first few thing i hate painting, painting a model i find is boring really like the building but the painting fed me to a orc now to stop my suffering.



Well i really like the GW models for the Lord of the rings and the hobbit but the scale i dislike. Till Knight models 35mm range :) so i had to order. ok on to some models i think.

Looks like you've got a good start. I love the Knight Models stuff (LotR and otherwise). I am considering ordering the Galadriel myself.

Keep up the good work!

I love painting, probably my favorite part of the hobby.
Do u have any GW Lotr minis you could use for scale comparisons? Lol I'm not even familiar with whatever that model was

Great to see someone on the site working on a couple of these excellent sculpts - I like both but Galadriel.... (sigh).... my only worry regarding her is that I am just not a good enough painter.

I'd expected them to look a lot bigger next to GW models, lovely sculpts though.
