SF&F Picture 44 out of 45 by Lisa Ann (Jae) Andresen.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: War

This is more 'my' style, I think. I just love this piece. My sisters helped a lot with the color scheme. I paricularly like the banners and armor, even if one friend did suggest it looked too 'Trolloc-ish.'

13 Dec 2000	Hannah Lee Fritz	Loading... Trolloc-y? How in the heck...? Well, anyhow. It's just swell. The colors are fabulous and even. The facial expression is stunningly appropriate, and I jsut love the stylizied feel about it. All the banners are done wonderfully - must've taken a lot of time...
13 Dec 2000	Kass Fireborn	Loading... What a fabulous picture! The coloring is just perfect. The face is one of your best ones yet, and I love the helmet and how the bound hair is poking out the back. The style of armor you chose is great and I don't think it looks Trolloc-y at all!
30 Dec 2000	Norma Peters	Loading... Beautiful! Admirable coloring and I adore the way you composed this. Everything pulls together so well.
21 Jan 2001	Tasha Kotraseva aka Isca Lox	Loading... Nice! I like the subtle colouring and the armour is great.
26 Jan 2001	Rene 'Sequential Tart' Alexander	Loading... Great design on the armor! And great job on the face- she looks like she's about to win. >
21 Oct 2001	Beth vegh	Loading... Very nice. Great detail. Yes, this is definitely your style. from Jae: You know, it took me a while to find "my" style, which is one of the reasons I'm still in love with this image. It was the first time I could honestly call something my own. Thanks for your comment, Beth.
22 Oct 2001	Coen de Moor	Loading... I like it a lot. Good compostion. I like all the banners, because they suggest a lot going on that you don't see. Lisa Ann (Jae) Andresen replies: "like she's going off to war, yes. thank you!"
18 Jun 2002	Jennie Seay	Loading... You have a great eye for composition. Your pieces have a balance and rhythm to them, and combined with your sense of color it makes them really come alive. I would suggest getting a book on armor for reference (or make a stash of online images) - it really helps to have reference when you're making the metal bits look dimensional. Helms in particular can be such a pain. I think the horn is my favorite part of this one.
