Oh my... oh my..... to see the 2 parts together, especially with the source lighting is a real treat.... It certainly shadows all your other dioramas (shadows.....shadow and flame ... do ya get it ;))

This is definatly your best piece yet!

We have watched this diorama grow and grow over the last few weeks, but the impact of seeing all the parts together is even more stunning than anyone expected.

The source lighting is excellent, the composition is excellent, the conversions are excellent. You have such a flair for this that I can't possibly imagine what you could do to top this effort. But you are full of surprises, so I am sure you will be able to do it.

Your best work yet!

Now I've seen quite a lot of incredible work on this website that amazed me over the past years. A lot of that stuff came from none other than Rutta. But this particular diorama tops it all! You've taken every aspect of it to another level, the painting, the conversions... wow. If I were to give out any Golden Deamon awards, this would be a certain winner. The only guy who could possibly top this is Rutta himself.

Damn you are good, those wing fit the balrog sooo much better, and that base is just so professional looking..... You really need to take that to the golden demon's i have nooooooooo doubt that you would take gold for that.

Just one thing, work on the photoshoped back ground, i can see your white brush strokes.

Everything about that diorama is stunning, from the wonderful conversion, to the paint on the bridge.

I may have to keep my diorama's to myself from now on :oops: , since I have seen a true masters' work.

If I was a millionnaire, I would give you a million for that... but I'm not, so I'll just try to steal it once I get in the UK... (I'll put some cans of beer in it's place...)

Awesome Rutta, the best thing I've ever seen of you, the best thing I've ever seen in the LOTR tabletop world... There really are no words for a piece of art like this one!

Why not considering to take part on a Golden Demon mate...? Why?! Though, I'm not sure a diorama like this would be allowed, as it's not LOTR wings...
Anyway, you would beat 'em all, no matter what you enter, you're the top everyone wants to reach...
I bow for you... (and nails your feet onto the ground so I can easily grab the diorama and run away with it... :twisted: )

Had GR! not told me, I'd have missed this masterpiece...

The wings and the lighting effects are enough to make that an enviable piece of art.

Great stuff!

I just can't get over how beautiful this piece is! The source lighting around the Balrog, and Gandalf is mind-blowing! :o :shock:

You really must get out more!!

All your diaramas are top drawer, i can't say i have a preference, fantastic ingenuity, modelling and painting together.

Think i'll just stick to bases for now... oh yes, i loved that article too, now i have to rethink basing altogether :mrgreen:

Do you have a contact for those lovely non GW round bases, Oslo ain't got them?
