    The Lego Viking from the CMF is excellent for adding riders of Rohan and customs
    I also made Eowyn shieldmaiden with a Padme head, wavy princess hair in light yellow, a gimli torso because I had a ton of him, and legs with some mail details
    Plus a dark green cloak (I think it’s one of the shorter ones from Draco Malfoy)
