I did it myself!
Generated ASCII-Art is for Losers.

I just translated "galwen nin mellon" into a Tengwar Font, and then took
this, zoomed it, and drew my picture with this. Because I had no picture
on which I could see, what "galwen nin mellon" looks like in tengwar. so
the programm made a TEXT document with "galwen nin mellon" in tengwar.

Tengwar doesn't produce ASCII-Art, it produces a simple text-file, but
the font isnt times new roman, or any other common font, its a tengwar
font. The output of Tengwar looks like this:
http://www.8ung.at/jackel/tengscribe.jpg

I took this dokument, looked at it, and then drew my ASCII-picture.
Its like I look at a picture, and then paint an ASCII-Picture of this
original picture.
