INTERVIEW·WHITE DWARF 309

The Fellowship of the Ring

September 2005·pp. 22–25

THE SHORT VERSION

Adam Troke asks Mat Ward, Dominic Murray, Mark Jones and the sculptors how the first journey supplement was assembled. Eighteen scenarios follow Frodo from the Shire through the Fellowship’s breaking, with progressively more demanding hobby projects. Modular Balin’s Tomb scenery becomes Dwarrowdelf and Khazad-dûm, while new Rangers, Ringwraiths and action-posed heroes translate particular passages and film moments into miniatures.

The final event guide divides the NEC venue into Forum, Arena and Pavilion areas, identifying activities, displays, gaming tables and signing opportunities. It explains how visitors can find the studio, Golden Demon presentations and participation games rather than simply listing the models for sale. The map emphasizes the unusually broad range of attractions gathered under one roof.
