they should e up by tomorrow). I got the message board guidelines page up.
All I need now is links, thanks, and Astro City pages. Please note that Daniel Horne
is interested in doing a contest. The prizes will be original wax sculptures of the
figures that he has worked on. These are unique and one-of-a-kind objects. If you
have any ideas for this contest, or just think it is a good idea email me. Thanks! (PS: be
sure to check out the image below of Gimli cutting Ugluks head off!) |
| April 28th, 1999: I hope Fortune City works out better than Geocities.
Anyways, here's is a picture I got last night regarding whether or not Gimli could chop
Ugluk's (That is the Ugluk the Orc TRU variant. Notice the bronze armor [and helmet,
not pictured] but the lighter green, compared to the dark black green of the Ugluk in his
Cave) head off (Or any Orc for that matter): |
| April 27, 1999: After having my entire page completely redone and ready to post,
my computer glitched or something, and all my work was gone. Today I am taking the
first step in re-redoing my page. Please bare with me as I get everything uploaded.
The following pages should be uploaded tonight: Middle-Earth Toys (Subpage),
