Good sources of inspiration here, thanks for posting. I have a bunch of GW LoTR minis, some GB plastic Vikings, Foundry and Old Glory civilians that I've been slowly collecting for our MERP and LoTR games, so they come very useful for TOR as well.
One thing I am working on now is Mirkwood specific stuff, like spiders, wolves and some undead wight types. I got eBob giant spider ready for brushing, but looking at smaller spideys, the best I can think of is Reaper spider vermin already mentioned in this thread. I have two from a Reaper KS some time ago, but I need at least six more, so I guess I need to order them. Luckily the Bones minis are fiarly inexpensive. I am not sure if they are stocked in Europe by any retailer though?
Some recent daubings:
