| My 3 Numenoreansby Pharazon (Minifig MOC's)These customs represent about a year's worth of work and several very charitable and professional individual's contributions. They are what I envisioned the Numenoreans (the ancestors of the Dunedain in Middle Earth) would have looked like at their pinnacle. Without further ado: Nimlothian Sentinel~
The highest of the order of guardians in the Kingdom of Numenor. This individual has one soul purpose, the protection of the Nimloth, the white tree given to the Numenoreans by the Elves of Tol Erresea. If his face looks familiar, that's because his lineage will eventually become great men in the realm of Gondor. I really like this guy because he is essentially made of spare parts and various projects.
Numenorean Infantryman~
These soldiers of the kingdom were of such great fighting skill and so menacing, even the Dark Lord Sauron didn't try to withstand them. They traveled to Middle Earth and the evil armies fled before them and before Numenor's downturn, they performed many great feats in many corners of the world including the capture of Sauron. Some of you may recognize some of his armament, his sword is that of falchion style. Appropriately elegant because again, they would have learned much from the Elves, including smithying. His shield is very large and when the army worked in conjunction would have made an impenetrable wall of protection.
Ar-Pharazon~
The last King of Numenor. Never a legitimate ruler, he usurped the thrown and began what was to be known as the Akallebeth (Downfall of Numenor). Under him, his nearly unstoppable armies conquered many realms and captured the Dark Lord and brought him the island nation. At first captive, Sauron eventually gained the trust of Ar-Pharazon and persuaded him to invade the lands west of Numenor (forbidden to Men) under the promise he will capture the secret of immortality. But he was deceived. As soon as Pharazon stepped foot on Aman, his entire fleet of ships were sunk and Numenor was swallowed by the ocean. Many great things were lost due to Ar-Pharazon's actions. His eyes are twilight gray due to Sauron's persuasion and his armament was inspired by Alan Lee's early sketch-work for the movies. His shield is an updated version of a shield I did a while ago. His mace is very similar to Sauroman's staff in the movies. I gave him very light, almost ceremonial armor to reflect his arrogance that he wouldn't need protection because he is such a grand figure. Thanks so much to Damien, Redbean, and Kaminoan for your help here. It simply wouldn't have been possible without it. Please checkout the FOLDER when public, not to brag but there is a lot to see. ~MCN Moderator of the Minifig MOCs Forum~ |
