Insulting Tolkien - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I believe that, in most cases, you would have to try significantly to insult Tolkien. Specifically, Morsul, I believe that he would value the fact that you even decided to try to draw something that related to his Middle Earth, I don't think the results would make much of a difference, it's concept art anyway. Now, if you purposfully made a horrid drawing of Legolas that made him look like a dwarf, then tried to tell everyone, "This is what Legolas looks like!", that might bother him. But I think he would appreciate true effort no matter what the results.
