18 Jul 2005	Kristina Beaton	Loading... He looks better then the real horse in the movie ^_^ Tips? Not that you need it: But I believe a fellow used a bit of water with his pencils, though they weren't water color. It made it smooth out: not sure how he does it. I'll have to try it myself. But if you do try it, (if you don't already know how) I'd test it on paper you don't want to use. I think he just colors it and when he wants to blend it he just uses a very small amount of water, maybe even just put some on a thin paint brush or your finger and do the rest ^_^ Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "Thanks; I may have to try that. I wonder if mineral oil would work too... although the paper might not like that. Watercolor paper should be okay, though."

You've really captured the sense of speed in this one, and the colours fit very well I love Shadowfax, LOTR wouldn't have been the same without him. -Michelle Erin ´EireWolf´ Metcalf replies: "I agree! He's like a main character, isn't he? No speaking parts though. Thank you for commenting!"
