Tolkien Gateway Marc Gabbana + Home "Tolkien opened up in me a dormant love of lost and misty times, myth and legend..." | Ted Nasmith - Tolkien Illustrator - Renderer - Musician Essay: Concerns of the White Council – Part 1 | Heirs of Durin Concerns of the White Council By Ori’s Quill This essay is an analysis of the concerns of the White Council that is featured in An Unexpected Journey. It is one of a three part trilogy that shows the evolution of the Necromancer’s rise to power, and in the future essays explains the connection between Thorin’s ancestors and the One Ring. It is also an attempt to reconcile the literary works of J.R.R. The History of the White Council of Tolkien The White Council is formed in the year 2463 of the Third Age shortly after the Peaceful Watch ends. Originally Gandalf was recommended as the leader of the Council, but he sternly declines the appointment, citing his need to remain nomadic and refusal to a summons. The Council reforms in 2851. In 2941, the Council meets again (This is the same year that Thorin and Company begin their quest to reclaim Erebor). The White Council by Alan Lee Twelve years later, in the year 2953 of the Third Age, the White Council meets for the final time.

3D low-polygon illustrations by Erwin Kho Rotterdam based illustrator Erwin Kho made of a low number of polygons and pastel colors the trademark of his 3D work. Also if at a first sight the environments and the cute characters may look rough, the attention to details is amazing and the shading and lighting make them look like some sort of paper work. Poster: The Shire | Fringe Focus “I don’t think he knows about second breakfast, Pip.” “What about elevenses? Luncheon? Afternoon tea?

Prints of the Mordor poster are still up for grabs on my Kickstarter Poster Project! Let me know what you think the comments!
The Lord of the Rings Family Tree Project blog.kofti.com The Hobbit One of the great things about the worlds that Tolkien creates are the half-mentioned places and events that are going on in the background of Middle Earth. By hinting at them and leaving them a bit mysterious, Tolkien gives the reader a chance to use their imagination and place themselves inside the world and explore it for themselves. Many of us, when we read stories like these, like to imagine ourselves there in the background as clever, dangerous warriors, or as powerful wizards and the like. Which led me to an idea for a painting that I plan to share with you over the next few weeks as it develops. Makes sense right? Let me explain: A few months ago, I went mountain biking with a few of my friends. It occurred to me, while I was out there bewildered and lost, that if this were war, I would probably have just gotten us all killed. This image was a result of that. When I got back from the trail ride, I scribbled this thumbnail down:
