A few years ago, when I had recently came out of my dark ages, I saw this very beautiful creation by Flickr user Paul Trach / Disco86. I wanted to build something similar, but to this day I'm not sure how to make some of the details, so I decided to aim lower. I already had the official Council of Elrond 79006 and I wanted to incorporate the arches and basically build a larger area where I could sit all the characters, who are present at the meeting in the book. At the time I wasn't aware of Eurobrick, or maybe had seen it but didn't know it had such a big community, but was somehow able to find this version on an image site. The rocks seemed the most difficult part to recreate and would also require many pieces, which I'd have to order, so I decided to just use @richchie's small buildings in Disco86's colour scheme. This was also my first big Bricklink project and I didn't know about Brickstock or Brickficiency, so as you can imagine it took quite a while to finish and was also quite expensive. I can't really say it's my design, but it's my version of a great set and two exceptional other people's creations. I've had it displayed for maybe three years, but have recently started thinking about replacing the tiles with sideways placed bricks, using some snot techniques, which I couldn't have imagined when I was first building it. There's usually a tree behind Elrond, but I wasn't pleased with it so removed it and took the opportunity to take some pictures without it in the way. I'm uploading the LDD file without the minifigs, because I don't know how to find the exact ones. Feel free to share your opinion and I would appreciate some ideas how to make a better tree. The one in the file is just a placeholder, but the real one wasn't much better. Council of Elrond MOD.lxf

Hi I made two sets of council of Elrond into one.. Just to make it more like the movie and to make it big. Made more chairs, add tree's and made the hall longer. And with my extra Arwen, I remove the dress and putt on the legs from the soldiers/scouts from Lone Ranger theme. And put her next to my Attack on weathertop set to get wounded Frodo away.. what do you think... grtz raymond

Now that the second LotR wave sets have been out for awhile it got me thinking, what does everyone else think is the best set of the bunch this time around? How does this wave compare to the first LotR wave and the Hobbit wave so far? Personally I am torn. I generally like the bigger sets best because I feel they offer more (and the price reflects it ), but I feel like the smaller sets actually offer a lot this time around too. I definitely liked the first LotR wave the best though, mainly because of Helm's Deep and the accompanying army/wall builder with the Uruk-hai Army. Please note Tower of Orthanc is not on this list for two reasons. First off it seemed like it would hands down be the winner. Second I don't think it is technically part of wave two since it doesn't share the same LotR logo in the top right? So, what is YOUR Favorite?
