Hi guys.
I'm looking for some reference material for the glamdring scabbard BELT
that weta made. Unfortunately' most of the pics i have found haven't been all that helpful.
So would be good if u could point me in the right direction cheers.

4Wish I had some good shots of the belt, it's absolutely beautiful (especially the weave between the scabbard and belt). I noticed for the first time watching Return of the King the other day that the belt actually has a few decorations like a tooled Istari symbol.
Also very cool how that second buckle actually attaches to the belt further on to keep the sword at a diagonal angle. I love Weta.

5@jamanticus: Yeah pics are really tough to find... Hopefully the weapons and warfare book has more pics. I'm thinking of ordering a copy.
You planning on doing anything for the glamdring scabbard?

7What metal are the buckles made from? Cast pewter?
