Description
Gothmog with his troll guard arriving at the fifth battle in the Silmarillion.I tried to make it feel like it could be a screenshot from a film.
"Gothmog, Lord of Balrogs, high-captain of Angband, was come; and he drove a dark wedge between the Elven hosts,
surrounding King Fingon, and thrusting Turgon and Húrin aside towards the Fen of Serech."
It's also on my tumblr with some close up crops: joelkilpatrick.tumblr.com/post…

You captured it with horrifying detail, and it might be the smith in me but I am obsessed with the detail of the fire and the axe.

This is REALLY GOOD! Gosh, I LOVE THIS! The weapons and the troll on the left's grim expression did it for me. All very sinister and got that "morgothian evil" written all over them. Gothmog's hamaxe is awesome. Lovin the rough sharpening on the trolls weapons too. Everything is awesome dude! I wanna see that balrog's face!
