There are so many great scenes in the Lord of the Rings trilogy that it's hard to pick a favorite. I could easily pick 20 or 30. Mike did a bunch of scene sketches for Masterpieces II, and today's sketch is a very cool one.

   Aragorn had been hesitant throughout the trilogy to step into the role of his lineage- being Isildur's heir he had claim to the King of Gondor. After Elrond visits Aragorn at Dunharrow and gives him the sword Anduril, forged from the shards of the sword Narsil, Aragorn finally embraces his heritage and enlists the Army of the Dead to fight against Sauron's Army. When Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli arrive with the Army of the Dead, Aragorn leads the charge. One thing that has always made me laugh (in a good way) about Mike's sketching a dead character is he always uses X's for the eyes. And as with any of Mike's scene sketches, you can look at it and be transported right to that scene in the movie. I love it!

   Well, that's all for today. Thanks for stopping by and reading!
