Much like the journey to acquire such pieces.....

“You must understand, young Hobbit, it takes a long time to say anything in Old Entish. And we never say anything unless it is worth taking a long time to say.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

Great one Marcus, much appreciated.

This is a great one from Ted. With all the published work he has done and all the years of commissions I wonder where they all are?

Insane just how much detail is in one piece.

John Blanche and Adrian Smith both poured their heart into these pencil interiors they did for the early Warhammer book, all to be reduced on the printed page.

You know this - and his style - is so brilliantly minimalist. I had the chance to buy his trio of book covers for the Lord of the Rings about 11-12 years ago having no idea who he was and I regret passing. Bravo!

Wow, I didn't know those LOTR covers still existed!

I completely agree! Of all the countless films he worked on I personally feel this was his best work. Some of his early depictions of Middle Earth for this film are right up there with the best Tolkien artists. 

He did a full shot of the shire which I passed on, dep regret. It was amazing. I love the characters in this piece.
