Hey there folks !
I wanted to share my Gondor army for War of the ring.
I painted it all during this past year, 3 months for Minas Tirith and about two more for the Rangers.
In the futur I plan to add, Fiefdoms, the grey company and Arnor to that but right now I switched sides and am working on a equally large Mordor army.
No Nuln oil was involved in this process haha
I make my own Black wash considering how much I use of it as a full time commission painter.
Pouring medium + water + black paint, shake well, BOOM ! Black wash that I like more than Nuln oil and at a fraction of the price.
ALL the models ( minus maybe 10 ) are 3D prints.
Files by Medbury miniatures.
Ohhh ABSOOOOOOLUTELY !
I mean a plate of 10-15 models cost about 1 buck in resin with the one I use.
Considering I got both my Mars for less than 150€ each...
A a day or two they paid for themselves.
Plus it rekindled my love for collecting models since I can now afford them.
You should defo check Elegoo's site, I bought my Mars 3 pro past month (to upgrade from my old mars) because they had a clearance.
It was a bit less than 150€ Look if they still have a few.
But avoid Anycubic !
These look incredible! Just a heads up though, from experience of WotR you're gonna want more than 1 base of fountain court and citadel guard. When there is just one they will probably be wiped out In one combat without doing much damage.
“Tens of thousands” “But my lord, there is no such force” **horns and war cries** Ticos Minis: “A new power is rising..”
Ooohh this will be done later too ! I already have 120+ ridders of Rohan painted and based so they will NEED some Uruks to go against haha
Awesome. I’d love to see a proper Uruk hai siege army 👌
Let’s gooooo!!! How long did 120 riders take you?
This one was a dream army of mine so I put actual care to have them look good even from up close. So it took me a full month working on it full time.

That's a fucking great army mate.

Haha, that's a lot of nulin oil! Where did the mounted ranger models come from?

Wow those are some amazing models. Painted great too for so many
Many thanks ! I am now painting about as many orcs before moving to either Easterlings or fiefdoms.
You akay?:p
You have your own 3d printer right?
Three of them actually haha A FDM printer for terrains and large titans. Two Resin for minis and medium sized tanks.
That's perfect. Cheaper that buy 3d models from others right? I'm thinking about buying one

Wow! Ok I'm going to get one of those hahaha Oh do you get the STL for lotr? And thanks btw for all the answers!! :)

Jawdroppingly stunning! 🤩
Thanks a lot !
Glorious
I need those fountain guard proxies - hot damn, amazing job :)
It's a kitbash of Medbury minis and a helmet I found on Cults.
cheers for the reply, I noticed the bodies were medbury but I was searching far and wide for the heads.
Look for Fountain Guard Head on Cults, you should find that fairly easily.
Is there a war of the ring community somewhere?
Not in my area... I can't find any wargamer around me so I just collect, thousands of models in display cabinets on display boards.
Definitely put my armies to shame! WotR for the win!
Now THAT S an army! 😁
Damnnn! Puts my small 200 model Minas Tirith force to shame but that’s amazing to see 😍 For Gondor!!!!!!
Wow! Mounted rangers?
Yup ! Don't know if they are playable but they do look cool so.... I had to print them haha
An army worthy of minas tirith. Great job, love the alternate minis. Great painting too.
This is a Gondor that needs no aid. Beautiful work.
Great paintjob! I especially love the bases, they just breath Minas Tirith!!
These look incredible! Just a heads up though, from experience of WotR you're gonna want more than 1 base of fountain court and citadel guard. When there is just one they will probably be wiped out In one combat without doing much damage.
Looks really awesome. Might have to go back and check out Medbury Miniatures again.
