I like that Gandalf has a different look. Lovely work.

It's very Saxon in concept (at least to my untrained eye).

Very cool! Points off for writing English text in a Tengwar typeface at the end, though.

Tolkien used tengwar to write English: most of Tolkien's tengwar samples are actually in English.
