Awesome sight as well as site John! I am a 29 year old art student that hopes to be able to do some work with Tolkien themes as well. All that I need to know is where I can chat with some other artists as well. Personally, I think your version of Smaug conquers ALL! He looks like a more lively version of the fell beasts, and it shows the evil corruption of Sauron as I believe the fell beasts were once cold and fire drakes were'nt they? Just bought David Day's book and I want to make a rendering of Morgoth. I need to learn more about that specific character and what his appearance would look like before and after his turn to evil and darkness. Any suggestions? I hope that Peter works with you on the Hobbit because obviously you are the best guy for that job. Once again that version of Smaug is THE BEST I have ever seen anywhere. Good luck on all future endeavors and an honor it is to sign the guestbook of a master. 😀
