though the Fellowship lay broken on the banks of the Anduin, the Three Hunters, unlikely in their bond for one another, charged headlong towards the doom of the Age.

Rangers of the North, warband for Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game. Models are Nights Watch from A Song Of Ice And Fire.
The shouting chat with the straw hair and the sword and dagger looks like Aragorn to me.

[Image description: two pictures of unpainted miniatures on a hobby desk. The miniatures are a ringwraith and a large ring, about the same size as the ringwraith's base. The ringwraith's sword and the ring are both green, as opposed to the unpainted light gray of the ringwraith. In the first photo, the ringwraith is on the desk, and the ring is lying on a steel ruler. In the second photo, the ruler has been raised and angled about 30 degrees from the vertical. The ring is still clinging to the ruler, despite gravity. End ID]
I didn't intend for my entry point to the Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game to include making a ring, but here we are.
I'm still very early on in the process; I've bought a starter army for myself and my partner (Isengard and Lothlorien, respectively), as well as the ringwraiths and the Fellowship. My partner has been wobbling on the edge of getting into miniature painting for a while, and is a giant fan of Haldir and the general Galadhrim aesthetic, so this is my gentle push. That, and a thread on RPG.net sold me on the system.
The Fellowship comes with a ring, presumably to indicate who has the Ring, or if it's activated. But, since I'm a nerd who has watched the LotR special features many times, I wanted to have a Ring that could cling and slam into the ground like it does in Bag End in FotR. And I have magnets for weapon swaps, sooo...
The problem was that even my smallest magnets were a bit too big to vanish unobtrusively into the edge. So I greenstuffed the ring bigger. Which makes it sound a lot easier than it was. But it's done now.
As a sidenote, I was mildly horrified to learn that the ringwraiths were Finecast. I've only dealt with Finecast (Failcast) once before, on a unit of Eldar Rangers (that I still haven't finished painting), and my opinion has not improved. I didn't get any bubbles on this batch, but plenty of warping and broken swords. The only nazgul whose sword didn't give me trouble is the pose where the nazgul is actively drawing their sword, and thus there's nothing to go wrong. But I greenstuffed on fresh sword blades for everyone. They're crude, but better than what was there before. Which is more of a damning of Finecast than a paean to my skill, but I'll take it.

"Let this be the hour when we draw swords together. Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn." Théoden, King of Rohan, ready to bring the fight to the forces of Evil. definitely a recent favourite!

Y’all I just gotta say, if you’re gonna whine over lady custodes let me just say…. I’m actually thinking of buying them now just to make the neckbeards cranky. I’ve been in this hobby for 2 decades and have heard so much whiney bs from grown men who don’t think women belong in the hobby PERIOD!
If you really are so easily offended then let me just say… you wouldn’t last if you were a minority. We have actual shit to deal with. You go ahead and keep pretending like you’re not the snowflake though I guess.

do you have any good female fics to rec?
DO I. LOL. Putting this immediately under a cut because there are a lot! There are so many talented writers in this fandom who do ENORMOUS justice to female characters, both original and book-based. Couple of blog recs at the bottom too!
(I'm assuming this is asking for Tolkien fanfic since that's mostly what I'm on about these days, but if you'd rather see Mass Effect or Dragon Age I can do that too.)
I'm glad you asked! φ(* ̄0 ̄)
I'm going to keep all of these to 1 rec per author just so we don't get totally out of control here.
Forging Gold by @swanmaids ft. Curufin's wife, Dwarf OCs. Heather is an amazing source of female character fic in this fandom; she has well-developed OCs for all of Feanor's daughters-in-law and treats canon female characters with such care and love. Absolutely recommend checking out the rest of her stuff!
Prick a Finger, Cut Your Hand by @welcomingdisaster ft. Indis, Miriel. A really great look at the dynamic between these two. Lena has lots of other good takes on female Tolkien characters too!
Friendship and Stern Demand by @polutrope ft. Elwing. Fantastic exploration of what the communications between Elwing and Maedhros might have looked like!
Untitled by @outofangband ft. Aerin, Morwen. Nelyo focuses a lot on the human characters so if you want to read more about what the mortal women went through in the First Age, definitely browse through their blog!
Abide, Abound by Elleth ft. Arwen, Tauriel. Elleth also has lots of works centering on female Tolkien characters.
And by their blazing signify that a great princess falls, but doth not die by TheLionInMyBed ft. Elwing. One of my favorite takes on Elwing's suicide.
Keeper of Kings by batshape ft. Lalwen. What did Lalwen get up to in Middle-earth? Seeing a lot of people die, for one thing.
Into the Heart of a Fey Thing by @amethysttribble ft. Aredhel, Galadriel, Luthien. Fun "behind-the-scenes" look at some adventures with these three!
A Fish Hook, an Open Eye by simaetha ft. Elwing, f!Maglor. Fascinating AU take on a meeting between Elwing and Maglor prior to the Third Kinslaying.
The Sleep of Flowers by Innin ft. Galadriel, Melian. Very beautiful scene, and plenty of other female-centric works by Innin!
Light Words About Nothing by Margo_Kim ft. Dis, Belladonna. I ship it.
Elwing's Strategy by lifeisyetfair ft. Elwing. Another great take on Elwing at the Third Kinslaying.
Out of Dreams, Into the Sun by solanaceae ft. Miriel, Indis.
Games and Fantasy by Genesis_Grey ft. Arwen, Eowyn. Ohh it captures that chivalric WLW so well.
Over the Unclear Eyes of Memory by Loriand_Lost ft. Anaire, Aredhel. Addresses Anaire's complicated feelings about Fingolfin's return to Valinor. This author also has a number of other great female-centric fics, highly recommend!
The Carriage Held but Just Ourselves by @starspray ft. Luthien, Elwing, Arwen. Amazing look at the line of Thingol's relationship with death. This author also has a whole series on Lalwen and an OFC!
Before the Breath of Storm by tinnurin ft. Dis, Dwarf OC. "Behind-the-scenes" look at the Dwarves before the battle of Azanulbizar.
This Now, This Us by crownlessliestheking ft. Indis, Miriel. Indis and Miriel talk after Miriel's return to Valinor.
The Tapestry by Zdenka ft. Thedowyn, Miriel. The ghost of Miriel Serinde offers some aid. This author also has a lot of female-centric works!
Not Undevoted by SatiricalDraperies ft. Galadriel, Melian.
Winter Sea by Tallulah ft. Finduilas, OFC. Finduilas had a girlfriend in the Falas. Another author with a great selection of female-centric works.
The Hunt by @cuarthol ft. Amarie. Amarie is trans and closeted in Valinor, but Finrod understands.
Come Home to Chaos (Get a Crush on a Queen) by ncfan ft. Arwen, Firiel. When Firiel of Gondor takes refuge in Rivendell, Arwen takes an interest.
Do I Hurt to Hold? by Anonymous ft. Galadriel, Melian. A darker look at their relationship.
That Time Elanor Gardner Had A Crush On Her Employer by Anonymous ft. Arwen, Elanor.
All My Shadows Fade by amyfortuna ft. Arwen, OFC. Unsent letter from a female friend of Arwen's as her wedding to Aragorn approaches. This author is also a good one to look at for more female-centric fic!
Orlaya by yeaka ft. Arwen, Tauriel. Cute!
Of All the Stars, the Fairest by whatiwouldnotgive ft. Arwen, Eowyn.
Or They Would Go On Aching Still by Farasha ft. Arwen, Tauriel. Oh, the grief!
Berrypicking Time by swamp_diamonds ft. Finduilas, Nienor.
Things They Don't Talk About by eris_of_imladris ft. Findis. Findis and Feanor have a complicated relationship.
Easily Sever What Never was One by vauquelin ft. Haleth. If you like Halenthir at all as a ship, you'll like this.
The One With All The Birds by clothono ft. Elwing, Nerdanel. I've said it before I'll say it again--my favorite Elwing fic.
Greensleeves by bravelittlscrib ft. Nerdanel. Little scenes of Nerdanel's life and her relationships.
Emerie by the_artifice_of_eternity ft. Erendis, Ancalime. Ancalime's last visit with her mother before taking the throne.
In the Family by arriviste ft. Celebrian, Galadriel.
At the Water's Edge by crackinthecup ft. Elwing, Idril.
And that's what I've got for you right now, I hope that helps! I would also advise checking out the blogs @tolkien-heroines and @sapphictolkien both of which focus on female characters in Tolkien's work. Happy reading, anon! ♪(^∇^*)
