On July 1st 2015 I uploaded my first custom: Kili. What originally began as a desire to make a few of my favourite dwarves grew into continuous ideas on what parts to use for each figure, getting inspiration from others and over time my sculpting skills improved and I learned from previous mistakes which I have now rectified in my updates. The Hobbit is one of the first stories I remember from childhood that I enjoyed and after the lord of the rings films when I heard about the cast for the dwarves in then Hobbit I knew I would enjoy them all. When I saw a shot of the dwarves standing together it stuck with me and years later when I got about a third of the way through this project I knew I wanted this to be the photo I replicated to the best of my ability. So enough talk, if you've been eagerly anticipating a group shot I myself have more haha. I present the Company of Thorin Oakenshield complete with all their necessary accessories used and seen in the film. The shot I’ve taken is based off an actual group shot you can find online, so not all those accessories are visible (the oakenshield, the runestone and Orcrist). But here is the group as the production photos teased. I plan to take some shots from the Trilogy but work and the weather prevent progress at the moment but for now here is the shot you've been waiting for. As well as pictures of the weaponry and accessories laid out (something like 40+ weapons).

I’d like to take some pictures of them journeying and interactions throughout the films with other characters but I have to eithe rmake them first or do some mad outdoor buildings or sets to accomplish this and it’s winter so you’ll have to wait as it is raining master Dwarf and it will continue to rain until the rain is done.

Special Thanks goes to my fellow Tolkien fans here on the realm. All of your comments, praise, friendship and conversations are what makes this place genuinely special. I love seeing Tolkien customs here from all forms of media and look forward to seeing more Dwarves and Middle Earth customs in general. The road goes ever on.
