Ah thanks that's what the situation was. I remember SEEING the (this is how I'll refer to it) Alan Lee's as of now unused Glaurung before, but only that one image/photo.

I have a strong feeling the forthcoming illustrated edition of Unfinished Tales that it'll be in the chapter "The Tale of the Children of Hurin."

By the way, I noticed that in UT it's "Hin" but in The Children of Hurin (great tales book) it's "Chin." Does Christopher Tolkien go into the spelling change, or is it one of those things that Tolkien changed spelling on the fly?

Not too long a wait to find out, when the book is released

He does mention it in The Lost Road, p. 322 § 25. He says that the correct form is Chîn, but he changed it to Hîn in Unfinished Tales because he didn't want people to pronounce it like English chin.

Yep was me Trotter. I was going to post it just now with the caveat to remove if it was considered to have too much detail.

Please post it here

Will do, I'm trying on my phone but they don't seem to upload. I'll add them when I'm home if this doesn't work now.

I have not taken too much care to make them pretty as I didn't want to harm any copyright holders, posted to hopefully help sell a few to those unsure whether to buy.
