Bilbo's fireside chair
Just made a Windsor chair for Bilbo's fireside out of styrene. An evening well spent.

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
And it seems really comfortable!! Best of all, it seems to fit the model better than the original xD
If you have enough time would be great to know how did you made it ^^ and also keep us informed on how the project develops please!!

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Well- this is absolutely great. Your skill in sculpting this is magnificent. Great tallent!
To all people who say only two words I only can suggest:
MAKE IT FOR YOUR OWN- and you will : fail . . . !
Maybe the magic was the most powerful force in the world. But that was long ago.

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Definitely a miniature work of art, nice to see a chair that looks a bit different from the norm. Bilbo looks well comfy

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Superb chair. It fits Bilbo's backside perfectly.

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Oh, just to comment, I was watching the return of the king movie yesterday night, and I saw that chair there ^^ Near the end of the movie, Frodo was sitting in a chair writing the end of the lord of the rings on the red book of hobbits. Is that chair from where you got your inspiration?
If it is you really got the feeling of it!!

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Very sorry to be so late in reviving this thread, and a belated thank you for all of the generous comments. The chair was based on that scene at the end of the movie.
The chair was made from sheet and rod styrene from the hobby shop. I make full-size wooden chairs as a hobby and used the same basic construction.
Here is the finished scene.

Re: Bilbo's fireside chair
Well done Master Ted! Very well done! 
Where there is a will there is a way, just as there are no problems, only solutions! Guess it depends on ones own perspective of the matter at that time
