Air New Zealand A320 - Lord Of The Rings

Hey guys
I'm currently working on the last of the Air NZ A320 series, the Lord of the Rings livery.
This is what I've got so far:



However, I've struck a bit of a dead end when looking for the fonts used on the fuselage for "Airline to Middle Earth" and the two characters names.
Before I start attempting to trace the font, does anyone know where I could find this font or at least a good sized photo to trace from?

You can see the fonts I'm missing in this photo here:

Hey Fraser, I guess you've seen these fonts?....

the "Party Business" one is pretty close, some letters not quite right tho

BTW, those two characters are Arwen and Eowyn...

Actually, that might work or possibly "Viking". Also, "Elven Common Speak" looks like it could possibly be Arwen's font. Thanks for the webpage Dean, I'll test some of them out.

None of those work unfortunately. It seems for each font there's a few characters which are perfect and then the rest are off.
I'll keep looking for the font but in case I can't find the right one, I'll need to trace it. So if anyone has seen a photo that is clearer and has a higher resolution than this that would be fantastic also.
