Ring The Characters

<BR>If you have seen Pictures of the characters, then you might feel the same way I do. I have always pictured the characters as Micheal Herring drew them on the cover of the Ballantine Books version of LOTR and The Hobbit. Here is an example Picture of how he drew Bilbo and Gollum:<br> <br> <a href="http://www.coldal.org.uk/images/bilbo1.jpg">www.coldal.org.uk/images/bilbo1.jpg</a><br> <br> I would get more Pics of the book covers Im talking about, but I cant seem to find any on the Internet. They are really realllyyyy excellent Pictures and I think they are the way the characters should look. I realize there is going to be a difference in real life, but the way Aragorn looks in the movie, to me, looks really bad. I was just wondering if you guys felt the same way.<br> <br> P.S. The thing that is weirdest to me is the way Orcs look in the movie. I have always imagined them as something like this:<br> <br> <a href="http://www.blizzard.com/images/war3/wallpaper/thrall-preview.jpg">www.blizzard.com/images/war3/wallpaper/thrall-preview.jpg</a> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://www.barrowdowns.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile&u=00000064>GandaIf The White</A> at: 7/2/01 1:44:20 am<br></i>
