Rohan + Photoshop = Utah

[tealin]

I've been getting back into the Lord of the Rings swing lately and was watching Two Towers tonight ... Rohan* is one of a very few things that can make me feel homesick for Utah, though that doesn't last very long because Rohan only looks like the Utah in my head and I soon remember that the actual place is full of strip malls, subdivisions, casseroles, asphalt, and sociological textbook examples, which rather kills the nostalgia. Anyway, a whim struck me tonight, and after way too much trawling of the Intarweb, I managed to scrape this together:



Surely Saruman wields no more dreadful power than the evil of Photoshop.

*Or rather, whatever part of New Zealand that is...

Lol... sadly, sadly true... and I'm going to school here... But, the amazing Brett Helquist might actually be teaching here next year, so there are some perks.

Wow... the really sad thing though is that it took me a really long time to actually notice what you had photoshopped into the background (i.e. after I had stared this comment). I'de like to say that I was focusing only on the figure. Either your'e really, really good at photoshop or I have lived here just a little too long...

BRETT HELQUIST TEACHING?!?? AAAAAAH!

yeah... He's one of three finalists for a full-time faculty position that's opening up in illustration... I have my fingers crossed, but more than likely it will be one of the others, because Mr. Helquist isn't quite sure he actually wants it even though he applied... Which is totally understandable- I don't understand why he would even apply in the first place...
