This is Lorannon, who is the character of Alyssa R George. She won 50th overall comment on my page(before the crash). So, I drew Lorannon as her prize picture(Yay!).

Anyway, Lorannon is a Paladin. Oh, wait, excuse me, a Wood-Elven Paladin. Where most might think of him as being righteous and evil-smiting because he is a Paladin, you've got another thing comin'. While he does do that sometimes, you're more likely to get an ego lashing bit of sarcasm. He drinks, too. Which, according to code of Paladins is a NO-NO.

At least he doesn't chase shiny things.^_~

Colored with colored pencils.

Lorannon!

I like the green, green eye and especially the lighting on this one. Yay for Alyssa! =)

:-) Rebecca A. Robb replies: "Green eyed people are a lot rarer than one would think. Blue eyes are more striking than green eyes which is why people like them more, but Lorannon certainly won't be having that problem.12"

Yes, yay for me! We feels so lucky, we does!

Not much I can say that I haven't said already, but since when has that ever stopped me, eh? ^_- I love this picture because it's just so incredibly close to that elusive picture in my head. Still won't forget that little gasp-feeling when I first looked at the coloured version. You have a gift, m'dear.

Awww, thanks!*becomes teary eyed*

Beautiful use of colours (especially the green of his eye - that's the *exact* 'emerald green', by the way)! Beautiful use of the lighting with the sword! Beautifully done expression! All in all, Becky, just beautiful ... thankee so much again. ^o^

I love this picture - but then I am vaguely biased ^_~

Had to wait for Alyssa to leave a comment, but now she has I can return.

I still love that glove of his, it's seriously nifty, as is the light from his sword. It's the look on his face too, mostly contemplatative, but with a faint hint of amusement - you just know he's dreaming up battering Schiri or something involving kittens. *grins*

I've always wanted to know how to draw gloves. Then one day I discovered it in the most unexpected place, and of course I had to use this new found knowledge somewhere! The look on his face was supposed to be a bit more serious, then I thought "This is Lorannon! He can't be that completely serious!

Lovely stuff!

The detail in this picture is stagering (I love the shadowing behind his bowed head and his hair and the creases in the clothing). You really have captured Lorannon in all his quirkiness as I imagined him. Perhaps a little younger than my imagination. But then elves are to look younger than they really are so I think my imagination is in err and yours spot on.

*shrugs* Joelle and Pantha had an issue with the length of his hair when it was opposed to their own views of him. They had always pictured it longer. I think it's just interesting to see how my own views differ from those of other people.

BTW does he own a watch? Just wondering on the examining of his wrist. However, it does strengthen his penetrating gaze from his eye, just I'd like to know what has grabbed his attention...

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure he has a muse named Shirley...or Shannon...her name starts with an 'S'. Anyway, he's probably just staring at his sword or in to space or something. I thought the angle of his arm was a little off and that it gave the worng impression.

Great picture!

Can't say I know Lorannon very well. Yes, shame on me. I'm still catching up and I have a few galleries more to plow through. ^-^;;

Yes, well, Lorannon tends to be a bit conceited, and that's all you really need to know about him.;D

That said, it's a wonderful image. I really like the lighting of the piece. ^-^ Actually, I like all of the piece, but the lightning is just amazing.

9 Rebecca A. Robb replies: "My muse is currently telling what a horrible job I did on his hair, but it's good to know that it isn't the only opinion!

Thanks!"
