   I’ve always imagined a balrog less physical and more “fire-y”.

   You can see wings in the movie but they’re not this clear.

    I wish that there was an artist that could create the balrog as Tolkien described it… Without form, but that

    would be really hard… it’s just that he was just smoke and flame… not something *tangible*

    One of the ones I like less of Howe’s magnificent artwork…it just isn’t as scary when you look down at it

    i agree, i think it should be less…solid. its not clear at all if the balrog had wings, they just interpret
