Another one of my more recent coloured pencil drawings that is exposed in the dutch YourOwn.nl fantasy gallery. He is one of Thorfins companions on an adventurous journey driven by revenge.

This is so awesome...All the little detail you used really makes the whole picture. I love his shoes...I know that sounds weird, but his boots just really stand out to me.

Nice picture. He looks like Lee Marvin (actor-Dirty Dozen; Paint your Wagon) though the eyes. Great job.

:-) Henning Janssen replies: "Wasn´t my intention and I remember late Lee Marvin less ... full! But I agree he had very similar eyes that made him look like a bulldog in a certain way and made his face perfect for drawing. "

Isn't the name Bolfur taken in the book, "The Hobbit" by Tolkien? otherwise, greaat job!!

:-) Henning Janssen replies: "Yes, there is a Bolfur in "The Hobbit". Most of those dwarven names aswell as Gandalf derrive from Snorri´s Prose Edda, though. Nordic Mythology. Enjoy reading!"

He’s hilarious. If you’d encounter him, you wanna laugh at him, but at the same time be afraid because he looks quite fearsome with that look on his face and those axes.
