This was my final for my Introduction to Illustration course. I was supposed to choose a well-known book and make a book cover for it along with an illustration.

I chose to do Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. The cover illustrates Minas Morgul signaling war with the green beam of light.

This was done using acrylic paint.

If you would like to see how I painted this, check out my process: [link]

Wonderful! I especially love the angle - it enhances how disorienting this moment must have been for Frodo and Sam.

Very impressive. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if I saw that on a book shelf.
