John Howe | Glorfindel and the Balrog - Portfolio
Glorfindel and the Balrog 46.5 x 63.8 cm 1989 It was very exciting to imagine Balrogs when they were rather more commonplace than the last survivor in the Mines of Moria. Glorfindel battles to his death with the Balrog pursuing his people fleeing from fallen Gondolin.

Getting it right (Special thanks to the Companie of Saint George) | Images. Bestowing a level of integrity on any fantasy world means accepting aspects of it that you may never explore, constructing an alternative art history, creating artefacts and costume styles, accepting inconsistencies and blank spots, finding the best way to make it appear as a realistic universe.
Boy, Have I Got News…. - John Howe
2003年3月17日 · Went to Forbidden Plant and purchased a “Balrog: Ancient Demon of Fire Illuminating Votive Holder” (I didn’t make up that title, it’s on the box, honest!), which is kind of a glorified translucent resin candle holder in the shape of the Balrog’s head and shoulders.

2003年11月12日 · (We just printed 250 copies of Glorfindel and the Balrog.) But, there is a most wondeful cathedral there, which we visited a few years ago. The facade of the edifice is so incredibly weathered – by time, pollution, stray shells and bombs – that is has almost assumed the look of a cliff face.
Schlusswort | John Howe
Unsere Aufgaben schienen uns ganz natürlich aufzuteilen: John konzentrierte sich auf die dunkleren Aspekte Mittelerdes – die wilden Kreaturen, den Balrog, Barad-Dûr, Minas Morgul und das Schwarze Tor usw., während ich überwiegend auf der sicheren Seite des Anduin blieb.

Postface - John Howe
Nos travaux semblaient se répartir naturellement, John se concentrant sur les aspects les plus sombres des Terres du Milieu, les bêtes féroces, le Balrog, Barad-dûr, Minas Morgul, les Portes Noires etc.. , pendant que je me tenais principalement sur le côté le plus sûr de l’Anduin.
FILMBÖRSE, ZURICH- SATURDAY DECEMBER 3, 2005 | John Howe
2005年11月18日 · Written by John Howe I’ll be in Zurich on Saturday December 3rd, at the 2nd annual film collector’s fair. That’s quite probably not the best translation for “filmbörse”, but I hope it’s clear enough.
All Work and No Play… - John Howe
2004年2月27日 · All week, I’ve been humming that old Elvish Presley tune “You ain’t nothin’ but a balrog…” Definitely been working too hard.
