Awesome illustration of Olorin Can't Post

Just scrolling through deviantart and came across this masterpiece! The illustrator decided to make Olorins look based off a younger Ian Mckellen. It does it for me! For now on when i think of Olorin this comes to my mind.
what do you think?

I believe that Azog and Bolg are possibly the only two orcs who may be an exception to the typical evil nature of an orc. Azog had brought up his son, well enough that he actually acknowledges him as his own son. That is a first for any orc. And Bolg sets out to march upon Erebor in vengeance of his fathers death. How many orcs will Try and avenge another dead orc? Most will just forget about the dead one. This gives me hope that Orcs, have some traits of good in them, even if it is small aspects.

Interesting concept [In reply to] Can't Post

He looks downright elvish in that pic and it really does look like a young Ian McKellen. The artist who drew it is very talented IMO. Thanks for sharing!Smile

Fire and wind now sweeping in this tiny upper room
There’s a hungry world, there’s a risen King
Unlock the doors, what reason more could we ever need?
So sing with me, I dare you to
Because there’s an empty cross; there’s an empty tomb"

I know. :) [In reply to] Can't Post

But in the drawing, his outfit looks very elvish, IMO. I'd actually like to know why the artist made the decision to draw him that way, because like you said, he ain't no elf and I would think he'd still have worn wizard's robes even when he was younger. *shrug*Smile
