Any sort of Middle Earth legendarium artwork is ok. It doesn't need to be made by or about hobbits.
Please give attribution to the original artist when possible.
It is not required, but if you know, please talk a bit about the scene in the image. What's going on? Who is in it? Why is it happening? Do you like it? Why?
Don't forget about the other hobbit forums here: !hobbits@hobbit.world !hobbit_games@hobbit.world
I know Bakshi's version has A LOT of issues, but I grew up watching it again and again and I have very fond memories of it. I'm aware I am in the minority.
One of the scenes I love is Boromir's death (video link)... if you can ignore the "not-enough-budget" Uruk-hai. I like the roughness and lack of music once Boromir's is hit with the first arrow.

It has been ages since I watched that. I don't think I appreciated it as much when I was younger since I was more familiar with The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Rankin Bass cartoons. But, this just looks so unique and interesting that I should really re-watch it as an adult to see what it's like. The great thing about Tolkien's work is the wide variety of artistic interpretations. I love them all.
Thanks for posting!
I've never seen this before. It felt like I was watching a Joel Haver cartoon without the surreal comedy. I'll have to watch this thing in its entirety.
I wish they had the tech Joel uses to make his. It's still tedious, but a lot easier to fix mistake (like tripping over a sword). Huzzah.
