THE LORD OF THE RINGS DIORAMA: FORD OF BRUINEN. YEAR: 2013.

As all our followers know, we have since Autumn of the last year a huge request about the Lord of the Rings. It is composed by a unique and customized selection of many scenes and miniatures of the films or books. Until now, you have been able to see miniatures when we finished the painting process, never with their respectives wooden plinths that we have performed (exept the diorama the Tomb of Balin and the Winding Staircase of Minas Morgul).

This weekend we had the pleasure to receive personally our customer and chat about more future ideas. So he picked up the first part of his collection based in a big range of little scenes and dioramas about the Lord of the Rings. That is why we have decided to arrange this "Lord of the Rings week" and show you one diorama each day.

Here you have the first one. This great diorama has been made with really cheap materials and it is not so hard to build as it seems. You all know the scene for sure. Who doesn't remember Arwen carrying Frodo while they are chased by Nazgûls? Who doesn't remember that wave with water horses summoned by the elven power that razes the Black Riders?
We are please to introduce you: the ford of Bruinen!




Arwen calling the Bruinen.



Defiant Nazgûl claiming for Frodo (this miniature is the Shadow Lord).



Check out the splash under the paws of the horse.



Horses of water details.

We hope you like this diorama as much as we enjoyed building it. For tomorrow we will show you the second one of this "Lord of the Ring week". Do not miss it!

  1. Buenos días, he llegado hasta vuestra página en busca de dioramas del señor de los anillos.
    Quiero hacer algo similiar a vuestro diorama y estoy buscando la mejor manera de hacer los caballos de agua. No sé si conseguir unos caballos para integrarlos o intentar hacerlos yo. El caso es que no encuentro caballos sueltos.
    Como lo hicistéis vosotros?

    Hola! Los caballos que nosotros utilizamos fueron un par de corceles de los elfos silvanos que nos sobraron. Utilizamos éstos por su estética más élfica que los corceles humanos. Como ves cogimos un par de cabezas y patas delanteras (las patas dan más igual de donde las cojas, pues se nota menos la raza del corcel). Luego no es otra cosa que pegarlos en la ola e integrarlos con la textura del agua. Por último colorearlos junto con el agua.

    ¡Esperamos que te sirva de ayuda!
    Un saludo!
