Hi
Anyone know of anyone who sells a Tower of Orthanc in 15mm or something that looks like it?
I've been asked to try and source one for a Christmas present and can't find one anywhere. It also looks particularly difficult to try and scratch build!
Thanks
Mark

It also looks particularly difficult to try and scratch build! Thanks Mark The Lego kit seems a bit pricey. But, I would think Fantasy Boutiques, ones that sell fantasy books, costume jewelry and the like, might prove a good source. I bought Middle Earth maps from one such shop which also had plenty of miniatures (non-GW). They just might have resin cast model and other structures.

Mark, Are you wanting to go by the movie or as Tolkien envisioned it? They are dramatically different. I have a small chess piece one based on the movie, but it's only about 5 inches tall at most - would that be of any help?
I plan to build one from Irregular Miniatures building pieces to more resemble the way Tolkien envisioned it for my army, and can share what I'm using there if that would help as well.
Let me know,
Terry

Thanks both.
I wouldn't want a Lego kit anyway as it's wanted as a Stronghold for a HOTT army, so would probably look out of place, however the Fantasy Boutique idea is a good one, which I'll bear in mind. Cheers
Terry - the chess piece sounds very interesting. I don't think he's too worried about which version he has. Can we explore the Chess option, if you could send me a picture and details such as price, postage etc? If he doesn't like it I'd be interested in what you're planning with Irregular Miniatures. (How do I contact you directly?)
Thanks again
Mark
