Process trial

Working like a snail at the moment... finally getting more done on this one. Still so much to be done. Still, I hope to try out my new filming equipment on this! It's still my old camera, mind, but I hope with the right lighting (I've got a new daylight lamp) I can make passable process videos. :)

Finrod Felagund

Well, turns out it was Finrod after all. :)

Also, an elf. :) I think he might turn out to be Finrod, but I'll find out when I colour him.

Nienor on Haudh-en-Elleth. Been playing with this idea for a long time and want to paint it when I get to it.

Back from my trip! It was indeed a good one - great kids, loads of fun, and actually a fair bit of free time to sketch! Túrin and Beleg studies with a splash of watercolour.

Two Captains

Quick digital sketch I'll work on more when I get back from my class trip: Túrin and Beleg in camp. Wish me luck! Seeya all on Friday! I'll be taking my sketchbook. ^__^

More progress on the Battle in Teutoburg Forest. I can paint non-scared legionaries too, I'm sure I can.

Did anyone say postcards? 5 *and* 10 Euros, check your updated pledges. ;)

Can I ask you for some ideas for the 10$ perk? I feel it's not as rewarding as it should be. Have you got any further ideas for further digital content, or maybe a small postcard print? I've also changed the top tier (Crown of Leaves) that's been vacant until now. :)

More avatars

The finished image. I've been making a lot of wip shots - expect the tutorial soon! :)

Tutorial: Aure entuluva

This is the sort of stuff you can expect in the way of tutorials on this page. :) This one's public for now. Click on the attachment icon to download it! (It seems I can't link to images that size!)

Milestone!

So, we actually crashed through the second Milestone today! That means: The "Oath" lineart is no longer the main prize for this month's raffle. . . . . It's even better - it STAYS the prize for this month's raffle, and is joined by a Fingon portrait! =D So not one but two originals will be raffled off at the end of the month.

Quick random sketch

Easter Sunday at the inlaws' - sitting on the sofa scribbling, and my daughter looking over my shoulder: "Who is that?" - "I don't know. An Elf?" - "Legolas?" - Okay - why not! *erases long hair* ;)

Battle in Teutoburg forest: first wip.

Under the watchful eyes of Playmobil figure Flavius, the Teutoburg forest takes shape, surrounded by reenactors' feet and ref photos of oak leaves.

Happy Easter! =)

Aure Entuluva, wip

Next stage on my current piece - lineart. Troll and orc hands grasping for Húrin as he swings his axe by the Fen of Serech, in the dying daylight in the Battle of Unnumbered Tears. (In case you're worried that this sort of spam will continue indefinitely, I'll be on a class trip from next Monday onwards, so I'm spamming you al...

Avatars

Five Avatars for you to use! If you use them on a forum or anywhere you can easily give credit, it would be great if you could like to my Patreon. If anyone has any wishes for avatars, please let me know, as well :) Have fun with these!

First Milestone goal is reached! Wow, guys, you're terrific. This means that "Speed now this feathered shaft" is no longer the raffle prize for this month, but we make it a larger one - and a cooler one too. It's the original pencil line art for "the Oath has been awakened", which was drawn on A3 drawing board, with a digital ...

Let me say a huge THANK YOU to all of you again, who already have or will yet find their way here! I'm so happy to see so many familiar faces (or avatars), but for those whom I don't know personally yet - don't worry. This is a wonderfully mixed bunch! I've already uploaded the first goodies (linearts, hi-res files, Etsy coupon...

Elvenking Lineart

Here's the lineart for the Elvenking. Feel free to colour it for fun, or just marvel at my fuzzy pencil lines O_o ;)

Very first preview of my latest piece: "Aure Entuluva". Húrin swinging his axe in the Battle of Unnumbered Tears. I decided to put my newly-accumulated Osprey book collection to some good use for the looks of Men in the First Age. If Rohirrim are Anglo-Saxons, it makes a lot of sense for the First Age to look Frankish, or any...

Clouds "erased" using a magic eraser. Early stage of "speed now this feathered shaft".

Maedhros therefore, being in anguish without hope, begged Fingon to shoot him with his bow; and Fingon strung an arrow, and bent his bow. And seeing no better hope he cried to Manwë, saying: ‘O King to whom all birds are dear, speed now this feathered shaft, and recall some pity for the Noldor in their need!’ My latest pie...
