John Howe !

Fantasy art legend John Howe, who was, along with Alan Lee, the lead concept arist for Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings Trilogy has linked to our humble site. And, OMG, what he says about us!

"In a world where most figurative fantasy sculptors cater to the movie collectables market, when much is overdone, over-detailed and over-static, it's a pleasure (and very reassuring) to see sculptors with a "painterly" approach. The Shiflett Brothers are to sculpting what Frank Frazetta is to painting."

I'm, like, giddy as a school girl. We are SO not worthy...

Not being a LotR fan, I'd never heard of him before this, but his illustrations are great. You guys definitely have a unique style, so I'd say it's a well deserved compliment.
