Greetings fellow One-Ringers!

At last, the time has come for me to dive headfirst into wargaming again. With more time and money coming in, and the prospect of, after several years of going opponent-less, some local gamers becoming interested in the LotR SBG, I decided to start painting and modeling again!

So, first off the bat, I'll be showing off the progress on a game board, for some battles to be waged over. I decided to first build the Easterling Temple as found in The Shadow of the East sourcebook, which I need for an upcoming roleplaying campaign. It's about halfway done now, but here are some WIP shots:



^ The shell of the temple with the tower in place. It will remain un-glued until the roof is tiled.



^ The beginning of the roof tiles.



^ Now two of the four sides are tiled, and the support beams have begun being put in place.

The miniature pictured is an OLD miniature for the roleplaying game Ironclaw: Anthropomorphic Fantasy Roleplay.

More pictures will be posted as progress continues,

Cheers,
Wolfy

That's a pretty sweet temple! I really like the scale roof tiles.
Glad to hear your back into the hobby!

Wolfy's back!
Glad to see your still alive and kicking, and getting back into the hobby.
I like the easterling temple, are you tired of cutting out roof tiles yet?
Are those decorations on the door cardboard? It adds a nice flavor to the temple. The top stair seems to be a little off, btw.

Oh, I'm already very tired of cutting them out. I've already dulled three Xacto knife blades, and have the other two sides to finish yet

Ah, yeah, I know the stairs are off. They were fine when I glued them, but somehow slid slightly (I think my desk is slightly angled), and since I used super strong wood glue, I can't just take it apart and fix it without severely damaging the base

I guess you could cut off the equivalent from the side that's short and have a slightly wider - but centered - top stair.

you can cut the piece out and glue it back on the other side as well. I am looking forward to seeing more post. The roof looks good.
