I believe the Exclusive edition is around 12 x 18 or so, but I'm not 100 % on that.
I'm not locked in on my sizes just yet, but at this point I am thinking that the Canvas Giclee Sauron will be 20 x 27 ( plus gallery wrapping area all around ), and Paper Giclee Sauron 17 x 22. There may be an "Ultimate" Canvas version that is full - sized 30 x 40 inch as well! It depends on if there is a demand

JV

I'm sure that due to the size and cost of an "ultimate" version demand will be limited, but that is definitely the version I want.

Yes, within 48 hours I should have the whole image unloaded. For now, I can say that the artwork itself has Sauron atop a cliff, looking toward the West, with Barad-dur about 8 miles off with Mt. Doom in the background.The cliff he is standing on has battle debris scattered about with Numenorian and Elven Skeletal remains and rusted armour, bones, chains, a morning star and thorn vines. Oh, and cracks of glowing lava with wisps of sulferic smoke in places. On top of this, Sauron's armour has all the embossed thorn scroll-work on his armour, all over.

I just thought I would share this description of the Sauron print as provided by Jerry elsewhere.

Now this teaser pic will tell a bit more about the pose, at least where Sauron's arm is concerned. Enjoy : )

Appears he's standing somewhat straight up. Interesting.

Well, he's certainly not jumping Sauron is not exactly a "fluid" character....... he's in armour after all

You mean he's not doing jumping jacks? I was really looking forward to that.

Nah, I'm thinking somewhat standing tall in a museum Esq type pose.

Little something something I bashed up. Hard to tell where to put the mace pic, so I left it out. I'm thinking the foot goes a bit lower though. Cannot wait for the full reveal.

Can't wait, It looks great! Maybe a preview with the newsletter this week?

I hope it's just a "I'm standing here like a bad ass contemplating some Hobbit soup after a day of killing anything that I saw breathing", stance.

That's about the best guess anyone's had yet.......

Perhaps in this teaser, Sauron's very presence on the ground causes it to break apart. I like to think that Sauron's presence alone causes the dead flesh of the fallen to quickly evaporate, leaving only bones and rusted iron. Just a thought!
