Laden with Expectation

THE SHORT VERSION

Alan Perry, Michael Perry and Aly Morrison discuss translating a film production’s meticulous designs into miniatures. Visits to sets and conversations with actors, weapon specialists and artists inform likenesses, movement, fabric and equipment, while smaller tooling helps capture tiny faces. Their examples range from Radagast’s patterned clothing to Troll cutlery and the Goblin King’s throne, showing how close reference work must coexist with assembly, casting and practical use in a game.
