Wow! Here's a blast from the past; I didn't realize I still had this in my files. Many years ago, the only artists doing illustrations of Tolkien's epic LORD OF THE RINGS were the Hildegrandt Brothers, and I absolutely loved their works. But the one interpretation I thought they were wildly off-base on was that of the balrog that fought the Fellowship in the Mines of Moria. So I decided to draw that scene myself and illustrate the balrog according to the way Tolkien described him. (Happily, the movie got him right as well.) It's an old piece, and it's got a few problems (stiff figures and the like), but I'm still rather fond of it.
