Re: The Hobbit - Erebor Dwarf Armour - Foam Helmet - Painted Absolutely stunning work! Thank you so much for sharing. Very inspiring. I'm guessing your costume will become a focal point in the third movie (battle of five armies). ;)

Ye, figured when I took a closer look. I guess your only chance is if someone here has the pep in their personal files. Maybe check all the Thor threads?

Is it this one? NO.0000853Details of the work
