Haha did you make up the thing about LotR fans being “ringers”? I’ve been a fan for a long time and never heard that before. But definitely going to be calling myself that from now on.

Appreciate the shoutout and can’t wait to see the issue with more about the project! The portraits are absolutely killer man.

Dude I really did not! I actually had to google it, which is so weird considering I've been a fan since I was 8. Pretty cool name huh?

Showed the essay to my friends, and they loved it buddy :)

Ahh, isn't serendipity the best thing!

It is I who is honoured Scott. You are such a genuine soul who makes me (and millions of others) happier, one video and artwork at a time. Keep up the great work. Sending you a high-five from Bangalore!

Scott Sava is awesome and I'd never heard of him. A special thanks for including the links to the videos. Very fun and engaging. This was a great curation piece Ishan. Also appreciated the links to Rick M's and Haley's work.

WOW look at those colors. Art that doesn’t strive for realism tends to be most inspiring to me. Thank for you sharing Scott’s work. Now I’m going to go grab my paintbrushes
