"Black Rider" by Ivar Dahlberg

hmmmm it's pretty nice...he! lets face it, our drawings very rarely turn out exactly as we want them to...not 100% anyways. I would have imagined the scenery a little more darker & gloomy. hmmmm I really need to get my hands on Photoshop and a draw-pad!...that's some pretty nifty effects you got there...I thought you had painted it with water-coloures of some sort...it doesn't look like something done on computer....well you just keep up your drawing...so that I can come here more often and leave a message or two. oh!...keep a close look at my site...I've finally got my hands on that finished dragon pic. should be up in a few days. until then have a mice time! Thank you. I was sort of going for a watercolorstyle. I also got to get my hands on one of those draw-pads. Guess it would make a lot of things easier.

This is done with Photoshop!!!!! Wow! I would never have thought this!!! It looks so watercolor-like! Like Magnus, I would have imagined it a little bit more darker but what creates the beauty of books is that everyone imagined the characters or a scenery their own way and no one has the same vision... Anyway this is a good pic.

For Magnus : Hey what's that thing with the mice time?? Are you making fun of me!!! Because if it's that, I'm gonna kick your ass...
Actually, I'm not angry! I even laught when I read that so.... I wish you a mice day and a mice day to Ivar too MICE DAY TO ALL OF YOU! Yes, the beauty with books. I have to read LOTR once again, before the movie....

WTF!!? you did this with just a mouse!!!?...I thought you already had one of them crazy draw-pads...uh...well I'll be damned....even more kuddos to you son! hehehe, it takes alot of patience to do it without : )

As u proably konw im obsessed with lord of the rings pictures. I do love this one, because fthe colour scheme works perfectly, only one question, is the black rider stooping down or soemthing? Very cool picture though. One of my favourites.

Ivar Dahlberg replies: "Thank you, and yes I know I was trying to make it look like he was crawling in some sort of strange way..."

I think your pictures really good .I always imagined the black riders to be really good looking myself .Dont even ask why...
