Well. Well. I'm going to rez this old thread.
I made this thread originally in early 2006 when I thought I was good. Hah. Hah. In the last 2 years I've made some great improvements, and I've posted some of my favorite pieces up here; most LOTR, some OT stuff as well. I'll scan around the boards and make sure I'm not breaking any rules in the process. *whistles*
Anyways, all my art is at http://ainulaire.deviantart.com. In there is also some of my photography, which I also enjoy. May add it up here again when I'm not feeling too lazy.
My training involves a few months in an art class where I learned to use pastel and charcoal, along with two classes at my high school. So not much. Most of it I've learned by myself over the last 4ish years.
Comments are, of course, always appreciated.
Aragorn, 2007:
Bah, he's so hot.
Aragorn and Arwen, 2007:
Cute together.
Cate Blanchett, 2007:
Beautiful woman.
Elf, 2007:
Random elf. Original FTW.
Fellowship, 2005:
Pastel. Love this pic.
Liv Tyler, 2007:
Another ridiculously gorgeous woman.
Sini, the adopted sis, 2006:
Isn't she precious?
... if you want to see more, check out the link above (or below! hehe). kthxbye

Oh wow, those are amazing!!! I love all of them! As for the picture, you might try capturing the top of the tree rather than the bottom, because that's where all of the twisting branches and stuff are...One thing I do when I take pictures of landscape or something, is have a pot with a bush or a plant in it, and then get the edge of the plant with it so it kinda forms a border. I don't take pictures much anymore, but I was wondering if you ever tried that?

Those are great! What did you use to draw the Fellowship of the Ring, Light in Mordor, and Black Rider?

keyodie: Thank you very much! I have caught the top of trees before, but for this one it was raining when I took it and bringing my camera up would have meant getting very, very wet and possibly damaging my camera >_< As for forming a border with a plant, no, I have not done that yet. I always love trying new things, so once I go out again I'll try it
Gilraen Ringeril: Thank you very much ^^
Elenya: Thanks! As for medium, I used soft Rembrandt pastels.

You have a great gift in both drawing and photography. I lack the patience for drawing things, but I enjoy photography. I hope you keep making things,

Thank you to both Eldar and shire-rose! The Fellowship and the Nazgul tend to be well-liked. *pets* the Fellowship is probably my best.

Yea, my bandwidth for the month ran out because I did uber detailed reports from ORC and it seems like photobucket couldn't handle the amount of people viewing all of my photos XDD

Given a much-needed edit. Updated to display only art rather than photos and with much newer, better stuff. Aragorn is pretty ^^
