I can't remember all of the details, but there was something about Haldir's sword being different from the rest of the elven warriors. And then you also have...
Hadhafang, Arwen's sword from Elrond from Idril dates back to the city of Gondolin - a VERY long time ago. But the sword in the second pic dates from the end...
I just finished my bow. It is a traditional English longbow style, red oak with a linen back. (I know that the bows in the movies have no backing, but I wanted...
Well met everyone. Way late getting to this party, but better late than never (I hope). I am working on a costume concept moving forward from the end of the...
Thanks Cat. I had found this just a few days ago and when I went back there last night, poof, it was gone. Appreciate you trying to get the rest back!...
Lots of folks favorite links have gone away as of today. Yahoo has chosen to shutdown geocities. Some of the pages have been archived someplace, most are just...
The question I have is about the front skirt panel of Eowyn's green gown - the lined panel that is pulled up and over to the side. Is it pulled up from the...
Hi Barb, I'm making this gown right now also and what I did was I used Simplicity 4940. I lined the center panel and I marked where I would sew down to on both...
Oh no. That's my geocities website. I'm going to Mexico for Day of the Dead, but when I get back I promise I'll dig through my picture files and see what I...
I have the Simplicity 4940 pattern but since the dress is for my daughter (girls size8), I had to make my own pattern. I like the idea of stitching the panel...
Judy, It would make the most sense if the ties on the panel were at the edges, but I was looking at the full frontal shot of the dress on The Costumers Guide...
... the Dead, but when I get back I promise I'll dig through my picture files and see what I have saved. I'm glad some of the text got saved. :P Yup... no one...
You can find some pretty good photographs of the back of the quiver and the knives themselves on pp 114-115 of "The Lord of the Rings Weapons and Warfare" by...
Barb, I put the cord loop on the right side at the junction of the center and right front. If you loop the center panel through, the velvet is heavy enough to...
Barb, Here is the link for my photos. Hope it works. <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/LOTR_Costume/photos/album/392535662/pic/list> As you can see, I played...

Thanks for the pix; it really helped a lot. I was placing the cord in the seam between the lining and the outer fabric and pulling it up to the waist - too...
The loop can be hidden in the seam on the panel's edge. I didn't use one because I could just tuck the panel under the belt and it held very well all day. ...
... Moo! http://fotogalerie.herr-der-ringe-film.de/showphoto.php/photo/205397/cat/7294 You find this picture in "The Lord of the Rings: Weapons and Warfare". ...
I know this one is Eomer's breastplate on his leather armor. They did such an extraordinary job with the leatherwork on the men of Rohan's armour. Very nice!...
