Continuing Simarillion

The following three photos of old Minifigs filling in for the men of Brethil...

This is another figure from the Classic LotR line of the 80s representing Hurin himself, leading the men of Dol-lomin...

Huor, Hurin's brother is next, yet another Classic LotR...

The following four photos are a collection of old Heritage, again from the 80s, these specifically were Riders of Rohan. I liked the idea they were now men of Hurin...

The entrance into Angband with Thangorodrim in the background. The model was constructed out of foam board and a lightweight plaster purchased at Hobby Lobby. The background is a painting downloaded from online. The orcs in the foreground are from Games Workshops' Urak-hai...

The final three photos depict orc captains (with the first being an early Classic LotR Azog)...

Next up will be the game recreating this first phase, as the Fingon's Army fights to the very entrance of Angband...
