I'm a big Tolkien fan since I first read his books, luckily a few years before Peter Jackson's screen adaptation (I love the movies, but I'm glad to have my own image of Middle Earth, not influenced by the films). So, I awaited "The Hobbit" premiere with excitement; and I was really not disappointed!

So, I celebrated it with a new glass

The saucer is painted black, and scratched to get the transparent lines of the Middle-Earth map (the north-west corner). On the glass I painted a fragment of the dwarves' map - the Lonely Mountain with the runic description. I hope you'll enjoy it!
One more thing - I've decided to sell a few of my glasses. If you'd be interested, please just send me a note - I haven't started with ebay yet, but I'll do it next weeks

Since I have a few not painted glasses, I can also make something to order!
