Originally done as a board illustration for LORD OF THE RINGS BOARDGAME
Yet another scene of Gandalf and the Balrog. The artwork for the board game was done after the film experience, and while contractually obliged to steer clear of the film design, a few changes have crept in.
The Balrog's flaming mane is one, and the sword, reminiscent of the two-handed Uruk blades is another. Gandalf has lost his hat too...
Otherwise, given the number of elements to be placed over the illustration, the whole composition is quite empty of detail and contrast.
