Now I want to draw a Tolkien character

...So I need to elicit the help of my fellow mooters. If you are familiar with my artwork and would like me to draw a character or scene from Tolkien's writings let me know. I find it easier to draw when someone makes a suggestion than when I just choose to do something; which I could and probably still will, but your suggestions will help, so think of something you always wanted to see let me know.

How about Gollum,

the period of time when he lost the ring, just before he met Bilbo. He left the island, strangled an orc, lost the ring...

I like that one; I had a great visual from it.

I would love to see the action scene of Eowynn fighting one of the kings to protect her father (who dies in the end anyway, but that's not the point)
Or just an impression of Bombadil.

Thanks anyway, but I already did a little sketch from sisterandcousinandaunt's suggestion. You can see it here.

Wow, I agree with Beren, you're really fantastic at drawing!

You know what I'd like to see? A drawing of Legolas. Not blond-Orlando Legolas, but the black-haired Legolas I always picture when I read the books.

By which I mean, draw Legolas however you envision him, but with black hair.

*agrees with Nurv* A different looking Legolas would be awesome

Here's a really good scene:
A scene at the Green Dragon, that shows hobbits drinking, eating, laughing etc...

She was fighting to save her uncle, Theoden wasn't her dad. She fought the witch king over him, no less.
