Artist's Comments

"Yet I may come at you, and all your accursed house; and you shall be broken on my will, though you all were made of steel. And he took up a long sword that lay there and broke it before the eyes of Hurin." (JRR Tolkien, Narn i hin Hurin).
It is not based only on Tolkien's Narn i hin Hurin, but also inspired by The Black book of Arda by Elhe Niennah

I love the detail work- it must have taken you ages! Melkor looks wonderfully undemonic, lots of people seem to forget that he was one of the Valar as well. *faves*

Oh wow. When I first saw this I thought it was by John Howe and had somehow been left out of the book. Really!
:iconedarlein:
What a compliment! Thank you :)

In the world there is nothing absolute, except absolute zero, but it is an abstraction.

Beautiful work. I did this scene also but mine was from the original book. I've seen the rest of your gallery as well. You are very talented.

The atmosphere is so well depicted... very heavy. I like it. :)

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear maybe ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is stillworth while
If you'll just smile.

-Charlie Chaplin

This piece is absolutely fantastic! The detail is amazing, and the movement of the clothes, and the mood,...I love it!
