I love that your figs seem to have a vaugeness to them, much like how the books describe most of the characters. I love the plain torsos, etc. Keep it up, (but larger pictures would be nice.)

I like them. I picture them much more grand but it's very difficult to define all these characters especially the ainur. Good job.

I'd say my favorite so far is your Ulmo.

I had in mind to MOC the beginning when Melkor began his discord.

A plain white 'room' with a white thrown for Eru. The ainur would be plain white figs..blending in with the 'room'. Melkor would be a light grey fig resembling his discord.

Cheers.

I must confess not really liking this... nothing wrong with the figs actually I just don´t think making the valar (and some maiar) in LEGO works.. That said I think Ulmo is my favourite of them..

A really interesting idea actually... but I think this would be even harder than creating the "worldy" shapes of the valar ;)

And for some reason I always imagined that as black or very dark gray...
