The BIGGEST Middle Earth Terrain Project in YouTube History! Building Minas Tirith from LOTR
Join us as we create the largest Minas Tirith Terrain Project ever!! I joined a talented group of artists to help realise a set of buildings for Zorpazorp's gigantic Middle Earth gaming board, from Minas Tirith to Osgiliath and everything in-between!
Check out the playlist here:

Using XPS foam, and custom sculpted 3D printed parts drawing inspiration from the White City itself to sit alongside the other masterpieces created for this special collaboration - enjoy!

Amon Hen Display Board Build Part 6:The Archways
Переглядів 9573 роки тому
In this episode we create the archways structure on Amon Hen. What appears to be a simple archway is in reality 3 separate archways of different heights and widths, including the supporting pillars and walls all on a curve! Great fun and another big challenge to bring these to life, including the ruins at the entrance to that section. We go through the reference material, researching and sketch...
Amon Hen Display Board Build Part 5: Stairways of Stone
Переглядів 1,6 тис.3 роки тому
In this episode in the series we look at how we can use very limited reference to create a structure, in this instance the giant Numenorean stairway seen at the end of the Fellowship of the Ring. My favourite part of Amon Hen, we see it for only moments but it leaves a huge impact on the audience, hinting at part of the great history of Middle Earth. From reference to basic materials for workin...
