    I like Aragorn, but not the helmet. There’s something particularly dodgy about the helmet.

    It looks like a cross between Sam’s salad bowl and the pope’s tiara. And it’s scary.

    I don’t like Aragorn’s face-it makes him look too hard and unforgiving. The mail and hair are nicely done tho.

    I think its the colour Figwit, bronze just doesnt go with his skin tone

    I like Aragorn himself here. But not the helmet. It looks like an oversized goblet inverted on his head.

    i like the helmet. it’s very stand-outish, and catches you eye right away.

    I love aragorn, but it looks like he’s wearing an upside down wine goblet on his head

    Yeah k, I looked at it again and it’s probably that the bronze is too yellowish, like there’s sun on it

    I love John Howe’s work, all of it, but I’m actually never fond of the way he draws Aragorn…

    But I hate this version of Aragorn, and Viggo looks 10 times better. I would run away screaming if I saw this

    Not my Aragorn, either. He looks like Genghis Kahn. Imagine a Fu Manchu moustache, and you’ll see what I mean.

    If the helmet had horns, would you then call it a viking’s helmet? In truth their helmets didn’t.

    That makes it a helmet of the norse warriors. Howe is clearly making connections…
