Tag As FavoriteComment		Detail of Glaurung & Turin. This  grew from a quick sketch into an absolute monster - I thought that I needed a few orcs to balance the picture, and then a few more and then the trolls turned up and then the warg, oh and a few more elves being led off to Angband.......I probably won't be doing quite so crowded a painting for a while or at least until my eyes stop bleeding.

Glaurung looks awesomely wicked. I was sure he was supposed to be black but then that could just have been the way I had him pictured.

I absolutely am in love with this picture!! I love Tolkien but am very picky when it comes to pictures. You pass my "pickyness" by far! You are an awesome artist! I love this picture, and the action in it is breathtaking! I am also an elfwood artist, i cant sign in though, not to mention upload many more pictures, that are by far better then the ones that I have on my page, but if you could just leave a comment of criticsm for me on my page with pointers I would totaly appreciate it! You are one of my favorite artists on elfwood! great job!

Wow, Glaurung is so beautiful, even though what he is doing right now is evil. Every scale seems on fire.
