From George S. - Arda - Lord of the Rings Gothmog, 28mm and Roman 60mm figures for Glorantha (145 Points)

 It took me a while to start on this challenge but finally made it to have some things ready :)

So, I'm starting my trip on the Quadrant by Arda on the outer orbit. Something Tolkienesque...

Here we have the two versions of Games Workshop 28mm Gothmog, commander of the Orks.

 

 

     About scoring , I think I get 15 points for them and 20 for the quadrant challenge..

Next stop on my trip will be Glorantha - Something Heroic something on quest..

 

So here we have a small group of Heroic Roman Praetorians with their officer fighting Heroic battles on their quest of conquer the world...(...??) The figures are 1:30 scale (60mm) made by Expeditionary Force. About scoring , there are 9 figures there X 10 points = 90 + 20 for the challenge = 110 points.

So if I'm correct I have gained 155 points and two cleared planets on the map...

 

With this first post I would like to thank Curt and all the people who are hardly working for this challenge!! Good luck and happy painting to all participants!!

'till next post...

Keep Up The Brushes!!

Hi George - thanks for this submission. It is always cool to see LOTR figures - in fact, I was reading an earlier post from another Challenger and was shocked to learn that these fantasy books had been adapted into a series of films! Who knew? This builds on my fascination with the setting :-)

But setting that aside, I would really love to know more about these Roman figures - and how did you do the shields? Decals? Freehand? I'm always threatening to paint Romans, and handling the shields stops me about 99.9% of the time...so well done. In all, that will be 145 points for you.

 

A reminder to all participants - we do have a whole three months, so feel free to space out those visits to different plants, alright?
