Artist's Comments

"He wore a tall pointed blue hat, a long grey cloak, and a silver scarf. He had a long white beard and bushy eyebrows that stuck out beyond the brim of his hat."

Gandalf the Grey as described in 'The Fellowship of the Ring'. I didn't include the scarf cos he has no neck, the cloak isn't long enough and it's all too busy by half but I'm still gonna enter it into the Lit Me Baby competition and continue to work on it (and other entries) up until the deadline.

Why LOTR? Because it is (or was (or possibly was only in my imagination)) the biggest selling novel ever. And second largest selling book, behind the bible. It is quite an important part of literature.

Why Gandalf? 'Cos he's the easiest to do and be recognised. (although less so since you don't often think of him as having a blue hat). Hobbits and Dwarves would just look generic.

And stuff.

(EDIT: silver scark? what's a scark?)

Hey, do you know if I can use this as the picture next to my name. I don't know how to do it. If you don't mind that is. . . . Can you tell me how to make this appear next to my name?

Hey, sorry that this reply is so late but... well it just is. I'm sorry but I'd really rather you didn't use this as your avatar (besides which I see you've already got a new one). Thanks a lot for asking though :)
