terrymerry Rivendell May 4 2012, 4:25pm Views: 524 Thanks DanielLB ...drove me nuts while doing it ...

DanielLB Immortal May 4 2012, 4:29pm Views: 521 When I see pictures like this It makes me wish I could draw! Then I would draw all my favourite scenes I hope we get a shot like this in the film. What drove you nuts?

Chopsta123 Gondor May 4 2012, 7:51pm Views: 523 that is awesome how big is it in real life and how long did it take?

terrymerry Rivendell May 5 2012, 12:09pm Views: 528 what drove me nuts what drove me nuts, was all the detail on the eagles and just making the whole picture work with the composition I had in mind. you never quite achieve what you have in your head ...but you get accustom to that, and hope the next picture will be the one where you get it right ...

DanielLB Immortal May 5 2012, 6:36pm Views: 480 It looks fantastic to me! It will never be right for what you wanted, but to everyone else *thumbs up*

Patty Immortal May 6 2012, 9:01pm Views: 466 This is really well done... perspective- wise especially, as has been noted. There is a sense of movement, too. Permanent address: Into the West

Fingolfin33 Registered User May 6 2012, 9:50pm Views: 473 Yea wrong key

terrymerry Rivendell May 7 2012, 2:08pm Views: 459 Quite large... Quite large 17"X 23" this allows you to get the detail, but it`s very slow work on my part ...so it took about three weeks on and off when I got the chance to work on it ...

terrymerry Rivendell May 7 2012, 2:10pm Views: 478 Thank you very much!...

terrymerry Rivendell May 7 2012, 2:13pm Views: 463 yes ...that was the concept yes ...that was the concept, I would not be surprised if there was a shot like this, in the Hobbit ...

terrymerry Rivendell May 7 2012, 2:16pm Views: 477 Thanks Patty ...I must of achieve something that I was aiming at

Chopsta123 Gondor May 7 2012, 2:33pm Views: 463 the perspective makes it look like being shot with a wide-angle lens. (This post was edited by Altaira on May 27 2012, 2:43pm)

terrymerry Rivendell May 8 2012, 8:00am Views: 459 The Perspective... The Perspective... Because I`m decorating the Lounge at the moment, I was able to tape the picture to the wall and draw the horizon line through the picture on to the unpainted wall. all three points of the perspective started actually, outside of the picture itself, and depending where you start these perspective points from, dictates what type of lens, your composition finally ends up as. But I still struggle with the perspective, since I`ve not got a total grasp of the theory...

Chopsta123 Gondor May 8 2012, 11:20am Views: 461 basically your saying you are painting the rest of the picture onto your wall? Can you clarify what those three points are that you mentioned. It all sounds intereresting very interesting and artistic. (This post was edited by Altaira on May 27 2012, 2:41pm)

terrymerry Rivendell May 8 2012, 3:54pm Views: 434 Three point Perspective... Three point Perspective ...I`m not painting on the wall, just using the wall to draw these perspective guide lines...

Chopsta123 Gondor May 8 2012, 4:06pm Views: 446 holy moly that looks professional. Come to think of it ... painting the whole wall wouldnt be a bad idea at all heheh. (This post was edited by Altaira on May 27 2012, 2:39pm)

terrymerry Rivendell May 8 2012, 4:23pm Views: 455 ha! ...I think the "one who must be obeyed" would have a fit ...

DanielLB Immortal May 8 2012, 6:59pm Views: 424 I do feel a bit dizzy when I look at it too much! /   Join the Hobbit Character Elimination Game in the Arena!
