    This is a small diorama where the grain of wheat bulb can be shown to full effect as the ‘Light of Galadriel’ as Samwise stands against Shelob.

    Unfortunately from this angle you can’t see Frodo who is laying down in front of Shelob (how I wish Peter Jackson had used this Shelob design for the film instead of the speedy ‘little’ spider that he did – I wonder what size the Mirkwood spiders will be considering they are much smaller in comparison :/ ), but Gollum can be seen legging it away from the scene.

    Like Moria real spider web was used and this diffuses the light quite nicely as well as hiding the bulb stuck to Sam’s hand.

    Hope you enjoy ;)
