Artist's Comments

So I finished the 50 K pageviews painting today, and a few of You made some guesses about the WIP I posted a few days ago.

This is a scene from the Battle of Osgiliath

For those of You not familiar with Lord of the rings, You may read about it here:

This was both fun and hard at the same time as I'm not a huge fan of masses of people or creatures in a single painting :-)

Already planning the next Middle-Earth painting.

Ask for permission before using this image for any reason.

Thanks for viewing!

Wow that's amazing man! So much detail in that, incredible.
:iconshockbolt:
Thanks Daniel! Trick is to know when to quit adding details, too much really is too much :-)
Now, out for a well deserved pizza :XD:

90% of people...blah blah blah. If you're one of the 10% who laugh at these sigs but don't copy/paste anything...well, good for you.

So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling...
What you feel is what I feel for you
:icondraggyness:
You have such an incredible penchant for details and realism in your painting. It's like being in the middle of that battle! You can always hear the arrows whizzing through the air and sword clashing. Very well done!
