The Merchant Guard of Abrakhân are first and foremost mercenaries, offering their services to whoever can pay the most. However, within the city of Abrakhân there are none who can pay anywhere near as much as the Golden King, and it is to him that the Merchant Guards’ loyalties lie. These sturdy warriors may look as though they are well fed, and while this may be true, they possess a strength that rivals even the strongest of men that Gondor has to offer.
I have also painted Saruman, ready for the game. I think I will be taking the part of Saruman.
The Lord of the Nazgûl, also known as the Black Captain, appears as the Witch-king of Angmar during the Third Age, instrumental in the destruction of the North-kingdom of Arnor.
The Nazgûl, also known as Ringwraiths, The Nine, The Fallen Kings and the Black Riders were the dreaded ring-servants of the Dark Lord Sauron in Middle-earth throughout the Second and Third ages, who in the later years of the Third Age dwelt in Minas Morgul and Dol Guldur.
The Grey Company (not painted by me) was led by Halbarad and the twin sons of Elrond, Elladan and Elrohir. They traveled from the north seeking Aragorn at Galadriel's request. To Aragorn they brought advice from Elrond, and a banner made by Arwen bearing her seal. Their horses were strong and proud but rough-haired. As their name implies, they wore cloaks or mantles of grey colour and carried no symbols save for a white star on each of their brooches.
Finally, the Fellowship of the Ring (also not painted by me). L to R (back row): Gimli, Aragorn, Gandalf, Legolas, Boromir and Gollum. Hobbits in the front row: Merry, Frodo, Pippin, Sam.

Good to hear you are on the mend Martin, got to be very careful with your back.
Great looking models on show, and look forward to the return of your battle reports
Thanks Dave. My fault really, poor posture hunched over the computer and painting desk! Anyway, hoping to catch up on 'Swiss' Tony shortly.
