SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Fellowship of the Ring

Love the hobbits dude.Thanks. What about the others?

I think this is interesting - I can feel the cosy atmosphere, as if I was there. The thing I noticed almost straightaway was that Boromir seemed rather distracted, like he wasn't wholey listening to Gandalf. I followed his gaze and realised it was actually between Gandalf and Frodo, so perhaps he is contemplating the Ring at this time? Whatever the reason, this picture is a gem. Reminds me of medieval art, with the warmth in the colours and composition. Nice to see you didnt forget Ol' Bill! Thank you very much indeed. You know, I'm amazed at the things people can pick up from viewing my work! I don't think I absolutely consciously purposed to portray Boromir's 'temptation', but it does make sense to the appearance and placement of the characters. It may have been in mind, somewhere hidden deep.

Oh sorry, i meant Aragorn in the backgrond Indeed. No worries.

Yea!! A dark haired Legolas!! Well, at least as I see him in the book. That is Legolas, right? And i am guessing that Boromir is in the background?? I love your interpretations of Tolkien's work, it gives great insight to how his world comes alive and presents a different view that I would have never pictured in my mind. Thank you!And thank you for the comment. It is indeed a dark-haired Legolas that you see .

I know you're a massive fan of Professor Tolkien's work so I wonder could you classify, is Legolas Greenleaf actually fair haired? People usually assume so because he's a Wood Elf, but is that just an assumption?In short, yes, this is an assumption. In fact, Wood elves are much more likely to be dark-haired than blonde. As for Legolas, it's not explicitely stated either way, but I simply classify his hair-colour based on the majority of his people, as well as how I imagined him when I read the book of course.

Oh my gosh!!
I've been looking for a picture of the fellowship for awhile and now i've found a perfect one!!!!! (sqeals with delight)

by the way tou draw legolas well with dark hairThanks, I'm glad you like my interpretations.

LEGOLAS!!! *tackles him*
Legolas: Ai!! Erin! Enough already!
Me: Well excuse ME!!
Legolas: *dusting himself off* This is a very well done picture.
Me: And you look like yourself! Yay! I love it!
Legolas: You are salivating on me.
Me: sorry. Thumbs up on the pic! VERY Tolkienesque. I'm glad you like it, thanks a lot for your comment.

I love your interpretation of Legolas. I never pictured him the blonde little girly-man that the movies made him. This Legolas is certainly gorgeous, but he hasn't forgotten that he is indeed MALE! Wonderful A few too many interpretations remind me of your observations! I'm glad you like this one though...

Umm, the only critic I have, is that Gimli should be a little taller than a hobbit, hobbits being smaller.

Is it just me or does the man sitting next to Gandalf look like Nicholas Cage? Seriously, well done. I really enjoyed this picture, the detail is really great!
