“we shall beat thee with our fire-spears!! “
Well, I certainly hope it isn’t Glorfindel!
This is just plain SILLY!
yes of course……. and gandalf can always attack the orc s with his giant lollypop!
I happen to like the picture, and for once Frodo doesn’t look like an ugly kid with a big head and huge feet.
I like Frodo’s nonexisting hands, but who is *she*? Shelob disguised as Jacelyn Smith? Aragorn gone bad?
Who is that woman, msut be Arwen, I guess.
GOOD LORD.
I rather like it. She looks very….cool. Yea, that could be the right word, cool.
yeah..i mean, its draw good and all…but why, Arwen, Frodo and Gandalf?? i just dont know…
i rather like it:) i think its very artistic and amazingly realistic:)
Ahem…that is too much for me…Meow…time to turn back into a black cat and runaway home, to the waterfalls
of my beloved Ithilien…meow…
Wow, that’s a scary bunch…
Freaky. What are they doing in one pic? And since when did Arwen have a fiery sword? AAAAH!
arwen looks really good…but not really elflike
I just had this awesome idea: it’s probably not Arwen but Éowyn, don’t you think? would make more sense!
and what about the fire-sword? cool, but not very rohirrim… (not very elvish too, but…)
I like the effect they did on Frodo!
Judas preist! Quick, somebody get the Athelas before I pass out!
HONESTLY, people, What the heck is Arwen doing there?(And it is Arwen, by the way,I have the book)
I LOVE this picture! I could laugh at it all day! I really hope these Hildebrant fellows weren’t being serious
Frodo is awesome!!!!
What is this new devilry?!
I coun´t agree more with Orophin14 above here! I wish I met a woman like her…
The girl looks too AmericanComicHeroine and Frodo
(crap hit enter)… has a b0n€r. Otherwise, GREAT ART!
The proportions of Frodo are strange but its a good pic
Its not the worst I’ve seen. But the girl reminds me more of Eowyn,with brown hair.
It looks like it’s from a roleplaying game. Probably just meant to be a wizard, a fighter and a hobbit.
mmmhmmm … yep … Arwen looks ver super – hero like
not ver … very
i want that one in my room 2!!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU PEOPLE ARE SOOOO NEGATIVE! you guys shouldn’t base everything on the movies…..
YOU PEOPLE ARE SOOOO NEGATIVE! you guys shouldn’t base everything on the movies…..
whoops……well as i was saying…. in the books…Arwen is an agressive WARRIOR princess….
and we can interpret the book any way we want..
the movie’s version of the characters is just another interpretation people!! Elenisil GREAT JOB!!
most of us can only hope to draw half as well as you do..(hehe…including me….XD)
I think that’s Eowyn……..Witchking stabs Frodo,Eowyn kills Witchking.See a connection here?EOWYN!!!!
Whoa… I SO totally want to hang this is my room! Not very LOTR, but hey! It’s like a fantasy movie poster!
Frodo’s hands are cool but Arwen (?) needs a brace or something for her incredibly goofy teeth.
Yeah, Gandalf’s staff does look like a lollipop.
They look like a Middle-Earth super hero team. “Here we come to save the day!”
CHARLIE’S ANGELS I mean…
When did Arwen and Frodo and Gandalf ever fight together? Even in the movie Frodo’s half dead when she comes
and in the book she never did any fighting. I also don’t think that Eowyn ever met Frodo, so I don’t think it
can be her. But everyone’s right, she’s more Eowyn-ish than Arwen-ish. And Gandalf’s just funny. *snicker*
God knows who the woman is, but it’s most likely Eowyn, I suppose.
I though Frodo went invisible, not white outlined and shaded in…
What is it with fiery swords? I can understand the fiery sword that Aragorn was holding but why does Arwen
have a fiery sword?
Gandalf makes Aragorn’s sword catch flame, but here I don’t know. Cute girl though.
I like how Frodo’s hand is sort of there…
Oh come on, now they are just showing off.
It couldn’t be arwen.she doesn’t do anything in the book,and they didn’t know PJ would put her in the movie.
I never rembered the part were arwen had a flaming balrog sowrd(and i hope thats not a balrog)
Hey, Frodo played by Evan McGreger.
I mean Ewan
FYI, this picture is titled “Arwen joins the quest” so I doubt it’s Eowyn, and the BH did know a movie was
being made, but didn’t know much more. And thank you ElvishElf, you’re my hero for today.
the detail is good, but I don’t remember this in the story at all
Good artistry, though it looks like a promo for a cheesy saturday morning kids action show.
I didn’t Know Aragorn was a transvestite….
Oh.. why is Gandalf wearing Cowboy? boots?
Yep that’s Arwen..I read a little book on their paintings..they used the pictures of the actors faces for this
If I pretend it isn’t LotR and more like D&D or something, its a pretty spiffy poster!
I like the hand/invisible effect. But Frodo seems to be having problems with his..erm..package…*blushes*
Look it’s Wonder Woman…
Gandalf: “Oh no I’ve turned the Hope of Men into a…very attractive, and rather lovely young woman…
Aragorn: “Eeeep! Run and Hide, Frodo!” Gandalf, looking rather content “Frodo my lad, will you come here?”
It looks like gandalf is wearing P.j’s. A night gown maybe?
I Hope thats not Aragorn
it is called CREATIVE LICENSE
arrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! not Eowyn not Eowyn not Eowyn not Eowyn she was BLOND for crying out
loud! me hat ebrothers hildebrant
Gandal acuatly looks like Ian
I like the picture, but it’s got nothing to do with the actual story…
is it just me or has she got HUGE hands?
Now watch Arwen overbalance and slice Frodo’s head off. Altho Frodo is better proportioned than in the last
pics I saw (grr, hit enter when I didn’t want to)
I like the fact that Frodo’s hands are disappearing. Other than that, this picture is just plain hilarious.
I like Frodo’s invisible glass hand…
Arwen: “AH! I’m shielding myself so Daddy doesn’t notice my low neckline!”
Arwen looks alot like me in this picture O.O. i really like the picture BTW.
;GOOD LORD this is Thalia the singer, or Zeyna for God’s sake but not Arwen never ever never!
That is probably how it would be promoted as a live action disney movie like POTC
No matter who the girl is, this is a cool picture!!!!
I grew up on Hildebrant, so I have to say I adore this picture. But Where did Arwen get MY flaming sword? 😉
I is never going to think of Arwen the same way again…
omg this is so gorgeous. I love Arwen as a warrioress
Arwen is pretty here, but not very ethereal, which she should be.
Just silly, I think.
Exactly which scene is this supposed to be portraying?
I love it when Arwen is not reduced to a lady waiting
cool picture, but what scene is it??? *is confused*
