Stunning photographs. Please do one about the Lord Of the Rings!

I second that request!! Haven't read the Silmarilion yet (don't know why, really) but I re-read Lord of the Rings quite often

Your displays look wonderful, conniefrere  :love:

Actually, once I read the first chapter, I decided to go ahead and read the Lord of the Rings instead of the Silmarillion first...
Yeah I know, I'm very stable in my wants  :lol: But fro some reason now I am going through the big one...

The lord of the rings is easier to read and more of a complete story. I you stick to reading you will love it I'm sure. One of the stories in the silmarillion is made into a novel. The book is "The Children of Hurin" that story is in parts in the Silmarillion, but the story as a complete tale is in that book.

It is a good idea think I will give it a try. Although the hobbits are difficult. Maybe need some customs of child klicky with bare feet and hairs on it. :)

Great pics! And the backgrounds are amazingly well done!

I did read Silmarillion (and the Unfinished Tales), though they're a bit too much for me  :-[  As for The Children Of Hurin... I do have the book... sometimes I wonder why in Hades I bothered.. what to say... The story IS on one of those two other books (or in both?), and it's misery all the way. :(

Just rewatched LOTR last night (I suppose the 2nd and 3rd this weeked).. for the... I don't know.. 20th time? ;)

Thanks Tahra and Justindo!

The Children of Hurin is indeed in the Silmarillion as well as in Unfinished tales.

BTW you watched LOTR with the extra scenes?

Oh oh oh oh, playmobil cave trolls! That's pretty difficult, I guess. (Playmobil needs giants, I was thinking about that the other day.)

We can use a balrog too. And while were at it maybe some orcs and uruk-hai and not to forget .....gollum.

The ONLY way to watch it.. I LOVE those movies, but they made a HUGE mess of Faramir (and the ents), especially in the theatrical :(  Even the long one is short on him and Eowyn... 

(it does take a WHILE... and they're still VERY short.)
