- Yeah, I have the calender too. It's pretty nice, allthough I don't like the
- style the artist used.
- I have this years calender though, and it's pictures are very nice. They are
- painted by Ted Nasmith, from Canada... The pictures are more clearer and
- precise than 93's calender.
- The pictures are :
- An unexpected morning visit (tkane from the Hobbit)
- No way down (LOTR)
- Tuor at Vinyamar (The Unfinished Tales)
- Farewell to Lorien (LOTR)
- At the court of the fountain (LOTR)
- Eowyn and the Lord of the Nazgul (LOTR, and one of my faves)
- The Anger of the mountain (LOTR, this painting is also on the cover of the
- calender.)
- Morgoth and the High king of the Noldor (Simarillion, defenitly the best of the
- lot !!)
- The Last words of Boromir (LOTR)
- The Glittering caves of Aglarond (LOTR)
- Gollum's Debate (LOTR)
- The Shores of Valinor (Silmarillion)
-
- Are there more Tolkien Calenders ?
