Re: Hey Z you want a good art book....
I am very suprised that none of you chose Micheal Herring. It doesnt seem that many people bought the Ballantine Books version of The Hobbit and LOTR, but he did VERY nice cover art for all four books, and I cant imagine the characters looking any other way than he drew them.
It was very nice. I hadnt looked at the cover of The Fellowship of The Ring when I had been reading The Hobbit. And when I read The Hobbit I got a very good mental picture of Gandalf. Then, when I go to read The Fellowship, the picture of Gandalf on the cover looks EXACTLY like I had pictured him in my mind. Has anyone seen the pictures I am talking about?
Here is part of the Picture from the cover of The Hobbit showing Bilbo and Gollum behind him:
