Re: The Taproom

I like the Eagle a lot.

However, if I want some Eagles to game with, I'm going to go buy them from Ebob Miniatures (same goes for the Spiders!)

Re: The Taproom

I lke the Gandalf very much.
But the eagle looks fake. Painting will have to improve this mini.
Master Barliman ? Do you have any liquid left ?

Re: The Taproom

Well I like orcs and the eagle isn't so bad.  Better than the Mukamil I think!  The orc is very groovy! But enough from the everyone's an art critic deparment!  Welcome back Master Barilman!!  Sorry about cracking open the "Special Reserve" while you were gone...and those 'floaters' did make it special, believe me...it also burned holes in the tables:lol:

Re: The Taproom

A very nice orc standard bearer. And he even has the proper style of standard since he probably arrived riding on a wolf.

Re: The Taproom

Well, I would like to invite everybody for a round of free drinks - to celebrate what happens . . .
Maybe Master Barliman has forgotten these famous Bree-ish club-toasts . . .

PS: this Gandalf with the Grat Eagle is overfantastic . . . Absolutely overfantastic.
We should give the Man an invitation, too. ( did somebody remember this band named Shakatak . . . )

Re: The Taproom

well I suppose the Man could accept the invitation if he wants so since he has been around, unnoticed among us for more than a year actually... but...shhhh , I won't spread the name....

Re: The Taproom

I checked, and its not me eighter Master Barliman.....
I think the Eagle is very well detailed compared to the others in the range. So there is improvement. I also believe that our famous painters are quite capable to bring him to life with a nice colour coat!smile

Re: The Taproom

A ridiculous idea, as you say. But I couldn't model them even with fingers, and my own are largely thumbs anyway.

I suppose we could check if it was important, but it doesn't really matter - I'm just glad to see him win. But after suggesting Hirluin for several months and then him winning when someone else puts up his name, it does occur to me that I also suggested Bombur for several months, and then suddenly one month when someone else suggests him, hey presto, he wins! I think I'm beginning to see a pattern forming here...

It now ocurs to me that we might have got Eorl a good deal sooner if only someone else had suggested him.

Mrs B says it's all to do with me. She once astutely observed that I have about as much luck as a lemming visiting the seaside.

Re: The Taproom

Huoommm ... yes, Master Barliman, it also doesn't matter to me very much ... huom ... about that who-was-first-of-that-Hirluin-thing ... rhuoomm ... "I'm just glad to see him win.", you said.
I felt the same ... rhuooommm ... so both of us won, didn't we ... huom ... he's next in line, so let's wait and see what he looks like ... hom ...

Re: The Taproom

Why should a lemming at the seaside have no charisma? I think they look rather sweet in their swimming shorts.
