dude i am gr8 fan of lotr......so posting a reply.....the image that shows the hand of saruman (i guess) looks pretty good<IMG src="smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0">,but the other image aint upto the mark.....firstly sauron shouldnt be seen in that ball (it should be&nbsp;above&nbsp;the tower)......even the landscape and characters arnt lookin good......in the first image sauron can be seen in that ball(cuz the ball is smaller than the hand)<IMG src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0">

hey Angad, well, as I said, these are nothing but spontaneous&nbsp;
work on my new tablet and I'm still trying to get a hang of it. As for
the palantir with sauron, I made that based on an early wallpaper from
the Two Towers. If you see that thing, it shows a fully visible Sauron
in the Palantir with Saruman's hand on it.&nbsp; The environment was a
spontaneous fill up, not really thought abt the concept much.... It is
not Saruon on the dark tower, it is the palantir which, here has been
projected as a source of light for the four characters who also lose
themselves as they fade away into the
light.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>

drew it flat. I'm not going to work more on it, but am working on a
more comprehensive concept again based on LOTR. <br>

the book and based upon the visualization as in the movie version. will
post it when its substantially done... and as for elvish.... the entire
text is in tbe book, scan it in and create a vector version using
photoshop's pen tool. scale it as much as u want for ur bump map...<img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"><br>
