Well said. "If only I could muster a legion of dwarves! Fully armed, and FILTHY!" I believe I heard someone mention that at some point...David wrote:Dwarves are NOT supposed to be man-pretty, that's the elves' job.
A hobbit thread or even forum section would be great, but I love putting -er on the end of things-erDavid wrote:
Also, as a side note: I think that we should combine all the Dwarf pics and other Hobbit news into one general "Hobbit News" thread so that we don't get a ton of "New-er-er-er-er-er" threads

LOVE the bow/quiver.
This is true, but it certainly looks like he would've been called on it at some point. Sure he could get by and did get by fibbing a bit about the ring but at other points in the story he wasnt alone and thus could not be too far off the mark in his account at least at those points where living witnesses, even Gandalf himself could easily discredit him.Mirimaran wrote:Well, you have to consider that the book, "The Hobbit" was written by a hobbit (Bilbo) and translated by Prof. Tolkien as a story to tell his children. We all know that Bilbo wasn't quite honest when he first penned the tale of his adventure, especially about the finding of the Ring. Now, since hobbits had become quite famous, more information has come to light, from the libraries of Rivendell, Gondor, Rohan, and of course, the Lonely Mountain. So, who knows what Bilbo might have omitted, or changed ever so slightly, or perhaps just mis-remembered? A book written by a hobbit, for hobbits, would certainly be hobbo-centric as a book written by a dwarf for dwarves would be to dwarves. Perception is reality!

I like those Langseaxes too in fact I was thinking about making some for my Dwarven Larp character, (I better hurry so I don't just look like I am jumping on the band wagon! lol)Ernildhir wrote:Greg wrote: but I certainly like the paired langseax's on the left.

You'd think they could have given him more than two arrows, though. :/
Those are Fili and Kili and I'm still not liking the lack of beards.Ringulf wrote:I like those Langseaxes too in fact I was thinking about making some for my Dwarven Larp character, (I better hurry so I don't just look like I am jumping on the band wagon! lol)Ernildhir wrote:Greg wrote: but I certainly like the paired langseax's on the left.

Yeah the bow and arrows are cool but if they are suggesting that this is Thorin as he was the one who shot at the Black Hart over the Gulduin...I don't know, he is kinda dark. (they may be going there with Thorin) Though Beorn did supply many of the dwarves with bows if not all, so I suppose this isn't conclusive. This dwarf almost looks like Richard Armatage, so I would not be too suprised.
