Excellent work!  And excellent pictures also ... smile

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

Thank you, Master Zoetrop, the best compliment to receive is having a look to your paint-job. Excellent! What I especially like about it is that you pointed out the harness of the horse appropriately as I asked Chris to add details to show that also the horse is of a royal breed.
Thank you for providing the pics here, Zoetrop.

Huoommm .... to be honest, Master Estel, I do not understand your question about another MX and sharing  ....  sorry. My abilities coping with other languages than Entish are very much limited.

Why not making a special gallery for Imrahil with all the painted versions of the members in it? Nice to compare different styles like the painting competition.

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

Hi everyone, these are all excellent Imrahils!

Here is mine.  I decided to go with a slightly darker theme.

Hope you enjoy!

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

Like sir Galahad from a knight of King Arthur's Round Table and one of the three achievers of the Holy Grail in Arthurian legend. Only with different symbols on the flag and shield.
Your Imrahil looks very nice George !!!! smile

I loved that film!  (Although he may want to "re-think" that Olivia Newton John headband from the 1980's).

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

you are 100% right my friend.. ouuuuh I like this picture !!!!!!! ... but Galahad was like George's Imrahil on the end of the movie with long hair and beard....especially at the end of the movie when he rides with the sword to the lake shore and he has no strength to throw it.... finaly this movie is one of my favorite... I have seen it 10 times and I always find some more magic in this myth lol

p.s. 1. This is another confirmation that we like the same little things... master of Mirkwood smile

p.s. 2. George see your Imrahil is full of inspiration for some of us.... smile

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

As I said, I am not quiet sure either . . . I think we will have to wait a little time.
I think I have finished my Imrahil to show what I mean. Then we will see- I hope . . .

When I saw the primed photographs of this figure and if you look closely, there is I think a little discrepency regarding the proportion of the hind legs (that was all I could comment on), but visually this is one of my favourites by Chris, and once painted I don't notice anything wrong smile .

Look forward to seeing your version Christoph - if it follows the standard of what's gone before it will be a fantastic miniature wink.

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

No doubt! You have a close look, Mr. David Daines. I knew that. I also noticed this leg-proportion-problem.
Could it be that the legs are a touch too short . . . ?
But there is something else: the neck and the head. There is something that irritates me . . .
Well, my favourite horse is certainly Felarof, the MS460, but have a look at Theodred´s horse: the neck and the head is looking better . . .
I don´t know, this is only scrutinizing (what a word).

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

Actually looking at Theodred's horse, visually (to me) this looks to be long in the legs and short in the neck and the 'front-end' looks a little bit 'bunched'. maybe the shoulder mass could have been a little bit lower? but still a very nice figure smile

Re: Imrahil, Prince of Dol Amroth

I'm curious.  on the topic of Excalibur.  When people in Germany, Croatia, France, Spain, etc watch an English language movie - do you get it with subtitles in your own language?  Or do you just listen to it in English?

Just curious.
