But no living man am I by Kuuush-Art on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

A sword rang as it was drawn. ‘Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may.’ ‘Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!’ (...) ‘But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund’s daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him.’ -- J. R. R. Tolkien, The Return of The King

Eowyn from J. R. R. Tolkien's Lord of The Rings. Based on design from Rankin/Bass The Return of The King animated movie(1980).

I recently watched The Return of The King from 1980 with my sis and I must say I was really positivelly surprised. The movie isn't a masterpiece
but it certainly has good points, like awesome songs :D Also it was really refreshing and inspiring to see totally different designs from
those we all know from Peter Jackson's movies which dominated LoTR easthetics in last decade.

I also uploaded version with plain coloring more similiar to 80's cartoon style:
