Lord of the Rings - Lighting of the Beacons

Post by SergeantChipmunk44 »

Image

The beacons were great fireplaces permanently manned by men of Gondor, and were placed on top of seven peaks in the range of the White Mountains. From east to west they were the Amon Dîn, Eilenach, Nardol, Erelas, Min-Rimmon, Calenhad and Amon Anwar (or Halifirien).

This is the scene from Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King in which Pippin sneaks up to the beacon in Minas Tirith and sets it ablaze. I always thought that this was a cool scene, and it seemed like it would be fun to recreate in Lego. Thanks for viewing!
Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9

This almost looks un-Lego. The detailing is fantastic. This is really good, man, you should build more LOTR stuff!

The Pyre is fantastic and the entire scene is exactly as I imagined it should be in lego format :)
