Two dwarven guards waiting at an entrance of Dains stronghold far north in the Iron Hills. From afar the lonely call of a very old raven is to be heard .... ... inspired by 'The Hobbit'

hey. This is a great picture, and it does remind me of the Hobbit quite a lot. I think that the detail on the armor and the weapons is lovely, what media did you use?

This is so well done. The anatomy is believable, which is hardly ever the case when drawing dwarves. I admire your technique.

This is great you do some awesome dwarves. I like the colors I think they add to the overall feel of this piece very nicely.

Loads of detail on the armour and you've really managed to capture the qualities of each of the different materials included in the pic. The only one tiny comment i'd make, is that to me, the back persons helmet looks a tad flat, but that's just my opinion, i'm sure it's not anyone elses...
Great Pic.

Now, *these* are dwarves with *real* axes! Definitely cool!

I like the helmet of the brown-bearded dwarf. But that Blondie is wearing a quite strange pair of trousers..

Pretty cool. The one on the right looks just like Gimli.
