Into Mirkwood

This Build is from the amazing book "The Hobbit".  It is when Bilbo and the Dwarves enter the forest of Mirkwood so they might get to the other side and reclaim the Dwarves homeland, Erebor, from the Dragon Smaug.

The Elven Gate

This is a scene from Peter Jackson's epic film "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug".

The scene is when Bilbo and the Dwarves are escaping from the realm of the Elven King Thranduil but are ambushed by Bolg, son of Azog, and his party of Orcs.  They could not escape because the water-gate was closed.  Kili climbed out of his barrel and fended off Orcs, trying to get to the lever that would open the gate (That is this build).  Just as soon as the immediate threat was leveled (With some help from Fili), Kili was shot while reaching for the lever.  He was shot with a poisoned arrow by Bolg.  It worked out in the end of the movie when the Elf Lady Tauriel healed Kili with Elven Magic.

Descendants Of Girion

 This build is from Peter Jackson's epic film "The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies".

The scene is when the dragon Smaug is confronting Bard the bowman for standing against him.

Because Bard's bow was broken, he stuck the ends into the timbers of the tower and had his son, Bain, set the black arrow on his shoulder.   Bard pulled the the string of his bow back and let loose at Smaug.  The Arrow pierced the dragon's skin where there was no scale and killed the great beast.

 Bard the Bowman.
