Description

This is my first real try with just photoshop painting. I used to do portraits with pastels. It took a little while to get the hang of the different style of painting, but I am very happy with the results. I want to thank ToxicAngel for giving me encoragement to give this a shot. Without you this would have never happened! *HUGE HUGS*!!! Here is a link to the in progress images. http://www.ravnheart.com/wip/aragorn/ The original photo I went by is on the offical Lord of the Rings site. Thanks for looking :)

You really should do portraits more often because this is an example of your skill and talent. Such a handsome man. Beards scare me and you make it look so effortless. You should be very proud! Now i'll go throw my wacom out the window. lol. No, but it inspires me to get better. Thank you for doing this. :)

I never thought it could be done Gina... not in such a perfect way. I cant stop looking and its totally flawless, a perfect example of whats right to be done. I agree with Cimrone.. I also thought it was a photo at first. But hey... if someone could do it.. its you! Thank you for this image... It proves the impossible can be done!

I believe that simply FABULOUS can express what I think of this artwork, if you are into LOTR portraits I can't wait to see Legolas hint :P ~Siliphiel
