Would a drawing of one of the actors in Lord of the Rings count? If not I guess I'll just wait til another contest comes around since I don't have time to do anything new.

Well...if it's a head shot (and not uber-modern), or the actor is in costume, yes.

It's probably too big of a file or it isn't one of the supported file types.

Well, I scanned it in before, and then managed to host it, but that copy was to light, so I darkened it then scanned it back in, and now it won't work. Does color effect it?

Well, sometimes yes. If you darkened it, that means more tones, and more tones means bigger file size. I recommend that you resize the image before trying to upload it, it'll be a lot easier for us to view it also, as the picture will be huge and take ages to load if you don't. Hope this helps!

Hi everyone, hate to doublepost but I finished my artwork, and I think it deserves a post of it's own! :)

This one took about 7 hours from start to finish, over the course of about three days. No blending tools used in this one! The theme was Faramir, obviously, but more of him contemplating his place serving his troubled father as a Captain of Gondor. Thanks for looking!

^^^^^^^YOU <i>DREW</i> THAT?!?!?!


Whoa.


By the way, isn't he just <i>steward</i> of Gondor? I thought he was only the Prince of Ithilien(hence my name...). Sorry, random, I know.

Yes, I did! :) I've been realistically drawing for about 2 1/2 years, it takes a lot of effort and learning! 2 years ago I wouldn't be able to have the same smooth pencil strokes I do now, it takes a tremendous amount of time and practice, and a steady wrist.

By the way, the drawing took about three 2-hour art classes and some extra time on the side. I've never really taken any formal art classes, the thing I go to is only in the summer, and you just get to free-draw whatever you want, it's actually a cartooning class! But I don't draw the cartoons...

Oh yeah that's true, he isn't really the Prince of Gondor, but I thought Denethor was steward... *shrugs*

I think you just won.

(He becomes Steward after Denethor dies. You could do <i>Captain</i> of Gondor?)

I'm going to be able to submit my piece today (I know it is last minute, but I was busy and the person who could help me decrease the fie size without blowing my head off in cunfuzzlement is a mere 10 minutes away. It will be in soon, so please don't close the contest without me. That would really make me sad. I'd have to eat cheese.
