THE DEFENDERS OF MIRKWOOD

This is Dan’s fourth year entering Armies on Parade. Having created displays for The Lord of the Rings, Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000, he has now set his sights on The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.

Dan: This year, my Armies on Parade project was inspired by two miniatures: Legolas Greenleaf and Tauriel. I painted both when they came out and knew that I had to paint more Mirkwood Rangers to go with them but, as usual, found myself distracted by other projects. When the second movie came out in the cinema, the scene with the barrels was undoubtedly one of my favourite moments, rekindling my excitement for the miniatures. Suitably inspired (and with the DVD playing in the background) I painted a box of Mirkwood Elves followed by the Barrels Out of Bond.

My idea for the display was to recreate the scene where Thorin’s Company escape under the bridge in their barrels, the Elves hot on their heels. This required a great deal of planning and a lot of frustrated muttering as I tried to figure out how the board would look. The bridge alone took several days to complete.
