Haha, nah. At the moment I'm leaning towards Theodred (though there seem to be a lot of other Rohirrim) or Elendil.

Didn't really want to spend money on buying a mounted Eowyn from Games Workshop, especially when I have the foot model, so I just beheaded that version of Eowyn (the one on the right is Eowyn, left is Elfhelm (but ignore him))



I explained the conversion in the blog.

@Chris, great idea, she also better blemds in with the normal Riders this way,making her disguise look more effective. Win win

@Laurapalmer: fantastic Theoden (and photography)! Look just like the film too!
@GothmogtheWerewolf: thank you I just hope she doesn't blend in too well I also now have a spare (headless) foot model with which I can use for conversions (I already have one lined up).

Good luck to everyone
