    Good point. And taking a closer look, both Aragorn and Gimli have black eyes (their left ones). Maybe the orcs

    Legolas is pointing to the Riders who are fast approaching. He isn’t wearing tights…

    … he’s wearing a form of medieval clothing called a ‘braies’. They only look as if they have black eyes…

    …because the small scan made it look that. The pixillation doesn’t help either.

    Thanks for clearing me up on the ‘braies’ thing, even though the still are maybe a little too tight in general

    for my liking, but you know. 😉 but the whole pointing thing confuses me because he’s using both he’s index

    and thumb for it. And they’re more pointed at each other than tiny little Rohirrim in the distance

    That’s ok ;). Actually, Legolas’ index finger is pointing to the left of the screen, but his thumb…

    is pointing toward Aragorn as it’s bent. This may just be an anatomical decrepancy that I have to work on…

    … or it may just be very unclear in this version of the image. On this site, it’s rather pixilated.

    Braies, don’t actually look like tights, more like he’s not wearing anything but still really cool.

    Oh, wow… I seriously love that haggard version of Aragorn. … beautiful depiction.

    I like Gimli. At least he looks Dwarvish in this one, in stead of plain stupid – like most artists do him.
