It looks great- and the greatest thing is that I never expected to see an illustration of this scene Of course, the illustration itself is wonderful, it captures the feeling of the scene really well. The trees look beautiful, yet old and frightening, and I love how every hobbit is looking at a different direction.(If I'm right, the last one is Sam, in front of him Pippin, then Frodo and the first is Merry?)

Thank you very much!!!
The last one is Frodo, then Sam, then Pippin and Merry leads the company (and he's leading the extra-pony with baggage)

I like the simplicity of the background- it's what makes it so cool.

It's a style of medieval miniature.

I love this. The trees and perspective and everything.
