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 :)

This is a masterpiece. such a piece that should be studied, taught and learned from. It is quite inspiring. Your experience in traditional form is quite apparent here. Such a talent, thank you for allowing me to view your work.

Holy heck I am speechless! This is fantastic! I now have a goal to aim for when I dip my hand into the realm of Photoshop portraits. I am amazed, awed, and humbled, and very glad I got to see this, as well as the process you went through to make it. Thank you.

Like EVERYONE above me--I'm speechless. Well, okay, I am, but I also want to say every positive word and then some! Yet, to say this is just great would be an insult. I'm new, and already you're my favorite artist here. Just...WOW!!!!
