Eowyn and the Nazgul

Posted on 15:57 by Unknown
Petar Meseldzija just posted a gorgeous new painting depicting Eowyn fighting a Nazgul, for which he had posted several progress sketches of a while back. Check out his awesome blog for more insight into his process as well as some detail shots.





It's a pretty epic scene from one of the greatest fantasy novels of all time, so it is no wonder that a lot of fantasy artists have painted their homages to it over the years. Here are a few great ones:



The Brothers Hildebrandt:





Donato Giancola:



John Howe:



Ted Nasmith:





W.M. Kaluta:



Matt Stewart:


Frank Frazetta:
