Hi all,

I know it's been a long time, but here are the next four chapters I've built for
my Lord of the Rings project:

"The Passing of the Grey Company" is by far the most complex I've done so far,
with several different settings and a lot of photoshop work on the pictures with
the armies of the dead.  Each of those was a compilation of about 20 different
photos photoshopped together.  Perhaps this is cheating, but I think it looked
better than going with a big pile of ghosts and skeletons to make the dead.

"The Taming of Smeagol" was by far the fastest chapter to come together.  I
already had the text written (actually, I've got the text written for a bunch of
chapters I have yet to build the scenes for) and on Tuesday night I built most
of the cliff.  Then last night I finished the cliff, filled in the details, and
did all the photography.  I knew I was going to post these other three chapters,
so I figured I'd hurry and get a fourth one up at the same time.

Anyway, PLMKWYT.

Nice work.

Lord of the Rings stuff is certainly my favorite interest in castle creations.

I remember when The Two Towers came out, everybody would keep comparing Dobby
with Gollum. So I was not too surprised with your choice of minifig :)

(...) Thanks. (...) I really think that Rowling's description of Dobby either consciously or unconsciously drew on the obsequious side of Gollum's character. So I felt comfortable using this fig as Gollum. Bruce (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle)
