Hi,
This is a digital painting, so there is no original for sale.
Thanks for your interest!
Jon

I love the dwarf looking over his shoulder! The picture is so very spooky, yet sort of shows a misty evening in late autumn with a fresh leafy breeze.

Fantastic! A very enjoyable ethereal-medievel scene!
Looks just like a painting of a Runescape scene!
...Not that I play Runescape. *shifty eyes*

man, thats one fancy door for an entrance , ...I'm loving the look back expressions before they enter. I'd comment on every piece of detail I like in this but that would be the whole thing! I'm really loving your artwork

Nice and creepy. Though I get the impression that the Hobbit is a depraved crack-fiend who is only adventuring to feed his filthy pipe-weed habbit.

Reminds me of playing Heroes Quest when I was a nipper.

Cool
Fool Hobbit! The smoke on the pipe could attract unwanted companions...

That's great. How neat that they're looking back up over their shoulders at the 'camera' before they head down into the dungeon... Now I wanna see what monsters they face in there.

S-girl!
I feel like I should know exactly who you are, but sadly my limited mental faculties haven't caught up with reality yet again, so I'm left wracking my brains... who are you?!!??!!?
Thanks though!
