Description
My third ( I think) Middle-earth inspired painting.This time it's of a ringwraith on a fell beast ( which of the nine I leave up to You to decide
)Now what's to say about ringwraiths..they're mean, calculative and very frightening...and I've killed a few of them with my lvl 48 Magician in Angband the pc game
I don't think I need to explain further what a ringwraith is cuz I'm sure most of You have either seen the movies and/or read the books.
I loved doing this so much that I might make other Middle-earth inspired paintings very soon...

I'd say its Khamul, the second in command of NazgΓ»l, just because of the helmet..
Its a lovely piece of art, great one. I must say that you have really good skills and not using reference makes it even better! Going to

I remember finding this on Elfwood (back when I was a member) and thinking how amazing it was. Now I'm seeing it again and my opinion hasn't changed one bit.

i love the way you reinterpreted the design of the ringwraith and the fell beast, especially because it doesn't copy the way Peter Jackson pictured them in the movie and yet they keep their LoTR feeling

Thanks! My idea of a Ringwraith was conceived many years ago, back in the late 80's when we used to roleplay, using the MERP and Rolemaster
rpg systems (by www.ironcrown.com)
I do love the Lotr movies, but I'm not that into painting Middle-Earth after them

The flaming sword is spectacular and so is the nazgul or fell beast. Great job!

The beast almost glows and the effects of the sword an wraith are most impressive.
You came recommended by the way. Many people love your art. I am now one of them.
