Someone with apparently a great deal of spare time has built Minas Tirith from matchsticks (http://www.matchstickmarvels.com/MinasTirith.htm).
Denethor'd better hope the Witch-king leaves his grill-lighter at home.

Just think, now when he loses all hope, he can take the entire city with him! Take that, Gandalf!

Insanely Excellent, or Excellently Insane - definitely one of the two!

This guy really has too much time on his hands...

He spent nearly three years working on that? Well, it certainly payed off, although I can't imagine how much work that would take!

Wow. Just Wow. :eek: I have no idea how any body could have enough patience to make something like that.

On the other hand, I'm not sure how that guy could possibly get fire insurance for wherever he stores his artwork.

Actually, it wasn't during his spare time - the artist was employed to undertake this task by Inziladun, who is constantly looking for new ways to start interesting threads.

Oh man, it would be awesome to set that thing on fire (though the builder might not agree)!

Ever heard of a fiesta called las Fallas (http://www.lasfallas.net/) in Valencia, Spain?

Truly incredible! Must have 48 hours in his day.

Hopefully there's fire extinguishers placed frequently throughout Rath Dinen. ;)

Well...
Visit Matchstick Marvels soon and see the Minas Tirith model before its scheduled departure in 2011.

I wonder what that means?

Could anyone here make some matchstick Rohirrim to fight them off?

Very impressing!

Three years of work to complete that... crazy.
