I won 1st place in the New York Comic Con's LOTR Fan Art contest :D It was my Fellowship of the Ring piece that won:



Grand prize includes all sorts of nifty stuff, including autographed music and books and whatnot. It also included two tickets to Friday's showing of FOTR at the RCMH in NYC, but as I already have a ticket for Saturday I gave away the two tickets to whoever responded first on TheOneRing.net's message boards. Hotel/transportation wasn't included, so that limited the pool significantly, as you can imagine.

But the best part of the prize (IMO) is that my piece is hanging up at the RCMH that weekend! Now *that* is cool.


I forgot to take a picture of my piece before turning it in, so colored Pegasus won't be up for a while. I'll likely have a couple artsy photos from NYC here after I get back, and if not that then certainly some in my stock account...

Alrighty, time to start packing :P *bounce* I'll have a report up next week. Cheers!

I'm a 19-year-old wannabe art-type currently in college. I was born and raised in Southern California and love it dearly. My name is Finnish; my mom was born and raised in Finland. My father is an American mutt. I'd have it no other way.

I am the eldest of four. The youngest was adopted from China in 2007 and I tend to talk about her quite a bit. She's one of my greatest inspirations.

I'm also a huge Lord of the Rings and Tolkien geek, if my journal and gallery were not enough hints. Tolkien has changed my life- as cliche as that sounds, I began writing and drawing because of his influence, and now I aim to get into the film industry due to Jackson's films on his books. That must count for something. And yes, I am in love with Aragorn. His lack of reality makes no difference.

I'm a really open person and willing to talk about basically anything. Feel free to send me a note whenever you want. :aww:
