That being said, this is definitely one of the strongest scenes of all of the movies and Jackson is certainly a talent with the horror elements. My oil painting of this scene is more aligned with the movie vision directed by Peter Jackson, the reference was limited and this is an early painting of mine, my future exploration I would definitely love to get more of Tolkien’s descriptions in there and work from a more personalised vision too. ![]() The Weathertop scene is a personal favourite of mine and it’s a scene that I have read many times and would love to dig into a lot deeper in the future both in a literary and artistic fashion for deeper exploration. Tolkien had a masterful way of setting emotions through his words, building tension and rather adept at instilling terror where needed, he proved that in a fine way with this scene much as he did earlier in the story with the Barrow-Downs.
