Oscars
 

I was watching one of the special features on the RotK EE DVD, and it showed Alan Lee winning an Oscar for conceptual design or something like that. I began wondering, why didn't John Howe get nominated too? Is it because Alan held a higher position? I thought they had the same position. Anyways, someone clue me in.

Alan Lee was THE conceptual desginer, John howe have a minor role in the movie. PJ give a major role to Alan Lee.

I prefer the art of John Howe. http://www.john-howe.com/

ty, and I too like John Howe's work better

Just wanted to remind you that John Howe actually helped WETA with the armour. That turned out to be one of his major roles in the production.
