I would happy to provide some gaming articles and battle reports.

I'd be happy helping. Having a seasonal magazine seems like a good idea. I could help with editing and photo uploading etc.

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 1:51 pm

Would things like this be good enough? It's a really quick sketch...

spuds4ever · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 2:38 pm

Like it! I think it reflects the darkened lotry feel to it.

Nice drawing garmenhord, though it'd probably need to be a better quality picture (try scanning it onto your computer) if it were to go into a professional magazine. Also the fact it's on lined paper (or at least it looks like it is) detracts from the fact that it's a very good drawing, so for pictures to go into a magazine you might want to think about doing them on plain paper.

^What he said. Scanning is a must. If this is your quick skecthing work garmenhord, then the mag is going to look pimp with them. That dwarf looks just as detailed as the sketches that you would find in rulebooks.

Yup i know about that

, but i just didn't know what the expactation ratio was - so i tought to try out something simple first

next ones will be on regular paper - and scanned if i got the time

garmenhord · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 7:07 pm

Good, since i was resting - i did some more effort - and started about around my last post here

Red Corsairs · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 7:12 pm

Looks much better than the previous picture without the lines and the picture quality is miles better. Looks really good garmenhord!

Great! Those things looks great!
I would have sacrificed my ear to Morgoth for such stunning artwork!
Welcome to the Tower Guard!*

@ spuds4ever: it might look strange, but what do you mean with 'foto uploading etc.'
@ General Elessar: Just as garmenhord, I would be happy to welcome you to the TG! Gaming articles are most welcome and I don't know, but should you like it to create an article based on a couple of 'tactical discussion's ? Because you're one of the most well-known faces in those parts of the forum.

Thanks for the repsonse!

*Any better names for the 'Morgul Post-team' ?

To me 'Morgul Post' seems a bit to Evil-oriented a name for a Magazine/E-zine.

Warlord777 · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 9:45 pm

How about The Middle-Earth Times

Better, but we need something that hints more strongly towards the One Ring. Maybe the Gondorian Herald or the Ithilien Messenger or something.

EDIT: Although those are very much Gondor-specific...

Also thought about that one, but it's quite... Unoriginal IMO

Other suggestions ?

spuds4ever · **Posted:** Wed Jan 19, 2011 6:18 pm

Well, if it's gonna be seasonal, you could call it "The Seasonal Ring" or "The Monthly Ring". And about uploading, basically, sorting the magazine out when we have everything we want for it.

Sacrilege83 · **Posted:** Wed Jan 19, 2011 7:55 pm

How about:

"Palantir Seer" or just plain "Palantir"
"Thrush Messenger" or "Thrush"
"Gwaihir Heraldry"
"The Great Eye"
"Word of Eru"
"Istari post"
"Mirror of Galadriel"

All of these have to do with news bearing information, education, communication, or sight which relates to what a magazine is all about. And yeah you have to be a big Middle-Earth geek to know the meaning of some of these words.

Red Corsairs · **Posted:** Wed Jan 19, 2011 8:57 pm

My favourites of all the suggestions so far are 'Istari Post' and 'Word of Eru'.

theavenger001 · **Posted:** Wed Jan 19, 2011 9:47 pm

I like the "Istari post".
The mag. probably shouldn't have the palantir in the title as there was a lotr site called that a while back. (I think it's still up, but just sorta sitting there)
