I still have an acrylic canvas I painted (when 14) of the block print from my Hobbit book called "The trolls". I made the forest very woody and dark, with the red glowing fire, but I made the trolls florescent green, about the color of the green thumb icon on this post! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] The trolls look good, I guess I wanted them to stand out. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I also stuck little Bilbo in there, right by the fire. Making him beardless was hard, but I did stay true to the books description in the rendering of a hobbit. If I ever get that digital camera, I'll post it!
