Tag As FavoriteComment		'All about the hills the host of Mordor raged. The Captains of the West were foundering in a gathering sea. The sun gleamed red, and under the wings of the Nazgūl the shadows of death fell dark upon the earth. [...] The onslaught of Mordor broke like a wave on the beleagured hills, voices roaring like a tide amid the wreck and crash of arms.'

JRR Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: Book VI, Chapter 4: The Field of Cormallen

Think you should draw the scene, where Pippin kills the troll and saves Beregond. No one has actually tried it.

Well... that's maybe a little tóó much blood? Well, it ain't orc blood either... but I'm a fool so don't listen to me...

There's an orc, right below the head of the horse, he's got black eyes and he's staring right at me, and GOSH... He's CUTE! I never ever thought I was gonna say that about a lotr orc. And he's not pretty. He looks like a orc, ugly with sharp teeth and dirty and filthy. But he's cute.

Well, amazingly character design for all the persons in the picture. Keep up the wonderful work!

This is an amazing picture, like somthing you would see in an actual medieval history book, or an art museum or somthing. I love the detail, and the people look really lifelike. I hope to one day be able to produce good art like this. Great job, Keep it up.
