The Grey Havens with Wētā Workshop's Charlotte Key & Simon Lissaman

Ойын-сауық

Today is the FINAL DAY to order this statue!: shorturl.at/fCQSZ
During my trip to New Zealand, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Wētā Workshop artist Charlotte Key and concept artist Simon Lissaman about the amazing new environment collectible - The Grey Havens. One of the most iconic scenes from both the books and films, it has been replicated in incredible detail. Charlotte and Simon recount the process of creating this statue, including accessing the original bigature for reference!

    Okay, I want to ask you something that has nothing to do with the Grey Havens. While everybody talks about the south and east of the Middle-earth ( I also have a teory, that there is a conection between Ungolliant, the 4 dwarf lords that still exist near the sea of Rhûn,the not completly destroyed Utumno, and the Nameless things), I am also curiuos about what is in the North. I mean, in the North of Gundabad, I know there are a lot of Mountains and there were dragons liks Smaug, smaler then Ancalagon, but what is beyonde them, and what happened in those Mountains. It simply endes, and there is the ocean? If it is like this, why nobody tried to reach Valinor from there, I mean if the world is a globe, it means the north of Middle-earth is the closest Point to Valinor. If, I am wrong, which I probably am, please tell me, or if you made a video about that, tell me how I can find it. Sorry for bothering you and also sorry for the gramar mistakes. Great job, by the way, all you video are great, and some of them make me underrstand things I didn't understood when I read the books. I respect you very much.

If you take requests :P Please make another rivendel, a Mini Helms deep, and all your 1/6th scale figures as mini figures as well :) ..... ohh, and make a complete fellowship as well in mini scale... I want to buy them before I'm to old to enjoy them lol.

    I do remember your Tower of Barad Dur video where you talked of envisioning yourself scaled down to that size like you spoke of in this video. It reminds me of how I learned in the Louvre how to study a painting in its intricacies. You literally immerse yourself scaled to the size you're considering.

    Question: What if Morgoth had never come to Middle Earth? Would life in middle earth have been just too bland to be successful? (e.g. the first Matrix was designed to be a utopia, and humans mentally rejected it)
