SciFi and Fantasy Art: Gil-Galad by the Sea

This was a commission in colored pencils for our favorite angsty Elven Monarch. Love the elf, hated the outcome of the commission. But what the hay! <evil grin>

Colored Pencils? No WAY! How can you get such precise and, at he same time, soft effect with them? I can't believe it! Absolutely remarkable!

wonderful line work on this one. The robes and cloak are so intricate and beautiful, great color, especially on the ocean, and as always great job on the face of the character as well, hes beautiful!

Just one comment for this gallery. JUST ONE!! *must restrain self*: BEST ARTWORK I HAVE EVER SEEN ON ELFWOOD. Thank you so, SO much, and may all the high Elvin lords bless your soul, for understanding the human body and drawing it RIGHT.

And for the comment about Gil-Galad being a warrior; 'Gil-Galad was an Elvin king/of him the harpers sadly sing...'

I believe that's the line. Forgive me for not having read the whole Silmarillion yet, but yes, he was a warrior too, as far as I can remember.

YOU ROCK THE HOBBIT'S SOCKS!! KEEP DRAWING!!
