Anduril - Sword of Aragorn

Description

This is my interpretation of Aragorns sword And°uril from the novel "The Lord Of The Rings" by J.R.R. Tolkien.

* Andúril, the Blade of Aragorn, heir of Isildur, forged out of the shards of Narsil (which was Elendils sword).

I tried to "reconstruct" how it may have looked like in Tolkiens 'Lord of the ring.

* Artist: me, 2005-01-27
* Made with the path tool in "photo impact 8",
* ... using bumpmaps of elvish runes, as provided by Dan Smith [link] 'tengwar annatar.ttf' & 'cirth erebor.ttf' and using the wonderfull Tengwar Writing Program TengScribe [link]
* All the inscriptions are hypothetical, as Tolkien didn't describe exactly, what he had in mind when talking about "engraved runes" on the sword.
But the text matches different interpretations I found on the net, that seem appropriate to me.

So hope, you like it.
