I actually liked the version of Arwen seen in #11, the Hildebrandts' wedding painting. It's the only Hildebrandt picture I think bears any resemblance to things Tolkienian.
Gandalf's beard in Whelan's The Messenger is soooo ridiculously long that it would be a hindrance in any battle, or long journey.
Rowena's Exotic Dancer Luthien - ick ack. Ditto of course her totally weird and nonsensical version of Aragorn's coronation.

I just noticed that MIS posted some critiques of a few of these pictures on Dessicated Coconut a while back...  On Rowena's version of Aragorn's coronation: Faramir, played by He-Man and surrounded by pantless Gondorians, surrenders the White Turkey Pop-Up Timer of Minas Tirith to Aragorn. Aragorn can't even be bothered to make eye contact. "Let's go, Pee Wee. Cough up the shizzle. My Escalade's running out back."And on Boromir's death: Next, we have Michelangelo's Pieta, a.k.a. the Death of Boromir. Arrows are the least of Boromir's problems: he appears to be missing his entire pelvic region. The green tube sock isn't helping any.
As befits an elf of noble birth, Legolas is clad in an exquisitely wrought sweatsuit of magical gray velour.
On the ground, next to lawn troll!Gimli, Boromir's horn has been cloven in one. (I do like the thick steam wafting up off the pile of orcs in the background, though.) |
