Today I finally finished a painting project of 88 Warriors of Minas Tirith from Games Workshop's Lord of the Rings line of miniatures. These figures are 25mm in scale and were painted with acrylic Games Workshop paints. All figures were purchased second-hand, mainly from eBay. I stripped all existing paint from these figures and started again from scratch. I painted them using a production-line method.
There are 28 Warriors of Minas Tirith with sword and shield, 28 with spear and shield, and 32 with bow.
To motivate myself while painting I listened to the 13-CD dramatised BBC production of LOTR, as well as the three soundtrack CD's from the recent films, and also at times had the three special extended DVD edition films playing on the computer next to me.
It was a massive undertaking but I am very satisfied with the result. I'll post further photos in the coming days.

I'm glad I found your blog. Your posts and pictures are amazing! I can't believe you listened to that BBC production of LotR, though--I couldn't get through it. I'm listening through a straight book-on-tape of the series now, though.
Thank you :)
Cheers, Wayne.
