Oh well... for once I'll be totally honest with you Brian, it's superb!

It's really one of the best diorama's I've seen so far (another one is that Balrog of yours...).

It's great to see you went so far in detail! The bench, the lamp, the birdhouse... those little things make it all so very special!

Great job mate!! So... what's next?

;) Isc.

Just totaly insane mate! All the detail and work you put into it is amazing, and it was all well worth it! I must say this is your best diorama to date, and you improve with ever one you make. Keep working! :)

There are not words in English/Elvish or the words of men to describe this article and the finished result. Totally astounding work.

Fantastic work! The whole thing looks great, it looks like you have snatched the film set along with Sir Ian, frozen it, and reduced it to 28mm size :lol:

The article is also clearly written and brings you through the process brilliantly. Well done Brian!

I had to think about this for quite some time and it was a hard decission, but this has to be your best diorama so far in my opinion. The amount of detail blows my mind and the painting is once again top notch. If I had the time, I'd look at it for hours and hours. Superb work, Brian :wink:

Brian....you've done it again. :D

As I've often said, you are a true artist since you are inspired to
produce some stunning 3d artwork utilising figures from a fantasy
gaming medium. I reckon this is one of your better pieces of work
and the overall effect is stunning. Please send a picture to Games
Workshop so they can see it !

amazing work mate! I stand forever in you wake, you are truely the master of the hobby... no-one can surpass you, your the greatest. you would send the best artist at WETA crying home to his mummy, if he so much glanced at your work. The effort you put in is astounding, and my full appreciation is there. Know this, seeing the diorama with its truely brilliantly written article has made my day. I cant think of another time in this hobby when I speachless, so I apoligise for the lack of words before, and I hope this makes up for that


Durins Bane We all love you :mrgreen:

Of course you know you've done it all wrong, don't you?

I can spot at least 2 mistakes in that whole diorama if I look hard enough - the bench seat was made out of Oak not Spruce, and the birdhouse should be at least 0.5mm taller. Other than those major issues, its pretty good I suppose.

Ah, a chance to comment on this spectacular feat. :)

I thought your Cave Troll diorama was the most astounding work I had ever seen in the hobby (because it was) when I first saw it, but you just keep coming up with the most amazing creations.

This one is probably my favourite. I say "probably" because they are always wonderful, one gets attached to them, and one does not want to surrender a former favourite lightly.

Marvellous stuff, truly marvellous.
