So this is a very exciting time for me. For the last 2 years or so I've been working on artwork for a new Lord of the Rings role playing game, to be published by Cubicle 7 in partnership with Sophisticated Games.

At last some previews of the artwork are being released, and so I can share this one, which went live on Friday: Dol Guldur, home of The Necromancer in Southern Mirkwood, later revealed as Sauron.

Swizzle version of Dol Guldur! I really like the color schemes you use in your paintings.

Keep up the awesome work!

I'm going to +1 the artwork, particularly the gatehouse and the overall "feel". I gotta say though, this strikes me as too "cathedral-y". Dol Guldur was a fortress, not a medieval town.

Aww, this is a very beautiful painting. I love the lots of green. By the way, do you know about the Austria band "Summoning"? Their album Dol Guldur is still among my favourites. And they also used a lot of green on the cover, too.

That art also makes me interested in the game. Heh, I was about to ask if that would run in Linux. lol. Then I noticed it's a pen, paper and phantasy RPG. Nice.
I mean I already own a plethora of RPG books but tend to play mainly "the dark eye" (DSA in German, and very popular here, has a nice background world and an acceptable rule system) but diving in these realms would be nice again. Maybe I can import it once it is released.
