Is this picture legit? Can't Post

I got a mini heartattack when this came up on my news feed on facebook. Its basically a poster of Thorin and Azog facing off, Thorn wearing his crown, and Azog wearing some helmet. Im confused, because it actually looks quite real. Most likely its a fan art, but i dare say it looks legit.
Thoughts?
Heres the link to the facebook image

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.

Obvious fan-art [In reply to] Can't Post

It rather reeks of Photoshop.

agreed [In reply to] Can't Post

as a graphic designer, it doesn't look official or professional in any way.

But it is so epic! [In reply to] Can't Post

I don't think it is legit either, but I really like it! Azog wearing a helmet like that would be great!
