Paintings

I saw this really cool postcard book of all paintings from the books. There was this really cool one about the balrog fighting with Glorfindul...

There was another one when Gandalf is facing off with the Balrog at the bridge. In this one the balrog did [B]not[B] have wings, but the one with Glorfindul did. Same artist, different sceenes. I guess that shows us that even painters can't make up their minds about whether Balrogs have wings or not.

I found the book that you are reffering to. That is not the same artist. Also, neither balrog has wings so your whole post is incorrect. Get your facts strait Balrog.

How the hell do you know it's the same book? Wat's your problem anyway? You're like a snooty administrator. Jesus.

Glorfindul's_Balrog, flaming is not permitted on Entmoot. And calling the admins 'snooty' is not the best way to get on their good side.

Aww come on. I wasn't insulting you. I don't even know you. It's just in the past I knew some pretty crappy admins and that Katt_knome_hobbit sounded like one.

PS: I'm a balrog. I have to flame.

PPS: Cool smiles.

I don't wanna be the one to break it to you, but... you spelt Glorfindel wrong.

Btw: What is the books title?

Yes, I know that you weren't insulting me, but the point is that you shouldn't be insulting anyone. The admins here are very good, and if you follow the rules that you agreed to when you registered, you should get along just fine. Have a nice day.

I guess the one with Glorfindel is by John Howe, is that right? But the one with Gandalf, who's the artist?

Ooops, I just discovered Nurvingiel's link to Howe pictures in another thread, and there it was, Gandalf vs Balrog!

Sweet! A Balrog Buddy! Hey there Glorfindel's Balrog! (Valarauko means Balrog in early Quenya a form of Elven that I'm learning to speak.)
