LEGO Digital Designer, where I design modules of Middle-earth. Currently I have a few Rivendell things and Minas Tirith walls with attachments. As you may know LEGO will be producing Lord of the Rings sets and I will be buying Helms Deep, can't wait.
Note: to bad I cant export the LXF files to BFME. I use Worldbuilder models as reference to the LEGO ones.
Link to my Eurobricks topic.
I bought a few Games Workshop miniatures. 'Converted' Numenorean Warriors into my own Soldiers of Minas Ithil, and I've also painted Elendil to match the army renaming my miniature to Earnur. But my best work is the Guard of the Fountain Court of the Shining City, Minas Ithil.
Link to the Last Alliance competition I entered.
P. S. I love my digital camera

Oh Skyrim....
I have a lot more than just this but posting it would take ages and getting pics takes too much time. Dúnedain (Surprise, Surprise... ) Gondor and Mordor are my Main Armies but i have a collection of every Race.

I like especially your Evendim Dunedain Rangers, with the blue on the cloaks, I might use something like that on my Aragorn.
But what I find of most interest is the similar dark theme of your miniatures and your Battle for Middle Earth skins.

Yes I know, a lot of my works are pretty dark. The reason being is that I'm tired of seeing bright and shiny Fantasy stuff that some people make Lord of the Rings. But I mean no offense to those people since a lot of people's work is fantastic, but for me, Lord of the Rings felt darker than other fantasies. With the Dúnedain Rangers, I was able to test different paint styles and hues of Middle Earth since the Dúnedain patrolled all over Eriador, and made me able to paint different colors based on the region where they are based (The Shire, Fornost, Amon Sul, ect.) Using imagery from the movies, Games Workshop, and Lord of the Rings Online, I was able to differentiate the Rangers between their separate companies.
Now that was a mouthful.
I still got a load of other stuff that needs pictures taken along with much of what you've seen is out of date. (not to mention the new stuff being released that brought me back into the hobby)

I used to pick out the most awesome guy in a bunch, and paint his cape or cloak (or make one and then paint it) a different colour (mainly red) to make him a captain. So little work, but looked so much cooler all of a sudden!
Rohan Soldiers got a worse treatment though, barely have any left.. Was meddeling around with chopping their hands\arms off and exchanging them around, just to make Rohan as random as in the movies! And them models are among the coolest one by default! So that's sad.. In it's own way Still, got a badass Rohan Captain, with a red cape, a bow and quiver on his back, and sword and shield in his hands!
Any real make-over wasn't really done, only the Haldir's Elves got silver armour once, instead of golden. Looked pretty neat

As I have made my Soldiers of Minas Ithil slightly evil by enclosing their helmets and the Fountain Guard gets a Witch-king flail without the spikes. But also I modelled a Dark Dunedain Death-mask for Aragorn, like the Angmar Rangers in RotWK.
But I think I might wait until The Hobbit miniatures are out, the new ones now are okay but I think I might pass on the Baby Balrog, ... Oh no wait...

Pretty good build of Helm's Deep based from the official LEGO Helm's Deep and wall sets.
