Artist's Comments
I figured I'd put this is the 'movies' section, as it is Sir Ian McKellen playing Gandalf.
The reference I used was the from the battle at Helm's Deep (one of my fave scenes)...um, but I blurred out the rest of the fighting in the background because as if I could draw that lol, plus the focus was supposed to be on Gandalf. This was my Christmas gift to my youngest brother. I actually painted a frame for it as well, all gold, with gold fabric leaves in each corner, and white little 'jewel' thingies. I also airbrushed a little green over the frame to 'antique' it. And added a quote from Gandalf to the picture. But here is the raw version, which I'm quite proud of! In fact, doing this helped get me into drawing again, and boosted my confidence, as it turned out so well on the first try!  Disclaimer!!!: J.R.R Tolkien is the genius behind Gandalf, I don't own. Imagine how rich I'd be if I did, though? |
