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?

Boromir's death (Bakshi 1978) (mutantreviewers.files.wordpress.com)
submitted 1 year ago by Crul to c/[email protected]
 

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.

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.
