Yep, looks like Chris got the other half to your Arwen Jas!
Wonder what the odds are on two Forum members pulling the matching halves of one sketch given the distance between them? Wink

Jas - you've got some lovely cards listed - I LOVE the Saruman!! Grin
Good luck on all your auctions! Wink Grin

Actually it seems that this is a 5 part scene and there are 5 of each part

These are the cards but i would be happy with just the 2 arwens

5 card set? maybe...

5 of EACH card? I dont know if id buy that unless he says it himself.
He has to have each card match so any of the cards can fit in the set? seems like more then its worth to me.

But who knows didnt see any of the other arwen halves on ebay but I doubt id ever get any 2 pieces of it

It doesn't look like the five cards would be too difficult to match up as an artist.  The only one that would be very involved would be the Arwen face - the rest just have wavy lines to show continuation between each card. 

So there actually exist 5 of EACH card?  If so, I think that is a fantastic idea!  The cards look great independently, but are really breathtaking when added together.  Plus it gives a collector slightly increased odds to put a set together. 

Chris, did you get these scans from the Topps website?  Or do you have any others beside the left Arwen face sketch?

Quoting Justin from another board without posting his examples...

Quote
I did five each of three different shots of Arwens.

For each shot, I tried *very* hard to make the five consistent in quality so collectors wouldn't be put off by one looking better than the other, despite being the same pose.

The profile and "Awen with Hadhafang" (Hadhafang is her sword) is actually part of the "Faces of Arwen" 2-card set seen in the top row here. The bottom row is the "Nazgul and Steed" 2-card set.

<snip photos>
I actually had reference for Hadhafang, so those Elven engravings on the sword are not random sqiggles.
<snip photos>
ou can also combine all the above into this 5-card set. The set is a sequence where the direction Awen is looking in her profile leads your eye through some scenes, the pursuing "Nazgul on Steed" and "Arwen Holding Ground."
<snip photos>
As you can see, you can make the "Nazgul and Steed" into "Nagzul on Steed" by switch the two cards around.

This was actually harder than I thought it would be -- I drew five each of the above cards, but it doesn't matter which one of the five of each shot you get, the sets you make will always line up (i.e any left-half you find of Awen's face will match up to any righ-half you find).

The only thing that would be worse is finding matching Kayanan multi sketches Tongue Apart from those two, which other artists (that we know of) have done multi sketches?

He hee - I suppose you are glad you went with the selling option rather than trading for a case now Jas Wink The Staggs are doing well - IMHO a lot of your other sketches are going for a song!
