I have been wanting to do this one for a long time so I ordered the figures of the wraith king and his two lieutenants from Games Workshop. Then I went searching for a decent 3D file for Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli that would fit the scenario in the caverns of the dead. I found suitable files, with some modification. With these crucial elements taken care of, I started working on The Paths of the Dead.

| The reference |
 |
| Foam core and XPS foam strips |
 |
| 1/4" foam core sheets with chips of packing foam glued down, covered with vinyl spackle, then slathered with ModPodge/black paint/water mix |
 |
| Stuffing all of the little skulls into the nooks and crannies, and littering the floor with bones and skulls |
 |
| The wraith King and his lieutenants |
 |
| The three companions |
 |
| The front is carved from XPS foam |
 |
| The wholes for the facing skulls |
 |
| In the lower left hole you can make out the pushbutton light switch |
 |
| Pressing on the lower left skull operates the switch |
 |
| In the scene, Aragorn has dropped his torch and drawn his sword in response to the wraith King's challenge. Legolas draws his bow and Gimli gets ready to fight |
