more art for @raisingcain-onceagain‘sTogether All Things Go, because the imagery was haunting me and i had to make an attempt to get it down on paper! kanimelde, or at least my interpretation thereof. if you like findrahil and AUs, I highly recommend!
I started painting Maedhros and Maglor last night, inspired by the last kin slaying and the last attempt the two of them did together to get the Silmaril. That part really disappointed me, as I always saw the two of them as being better than their brothers and father, and I always forget about that last battle they initiate, so I felt compelled to draw them how I see them in that scene, most likely from the view of Elrond and Elros.
Still unfinished, but I hope to finish it soon, as it’s not the biggest drawing I’ve made in a while! let me know what you think!
I don’t mean to sound like a cliche, but I seriously had not expected this drawing to be so good so quickly… I am absolutely in love!!
I fixed Mae’s face, which was most crucial to me, and then the shading took a life if its own.
I can’t wait to add a bit more details and finish this shortly! It will not have more background than this, but I think the two of them looks complex enough for me to get away with!
So, guys, I know it’s been a while since my last post, but tbh I have been focused on my original work and it doesn’t seem it’s all that interesting to you, so I keep all of that art over at my Instagram (if you are interested, go check out my account, IngvildSchageArt).
Some days ago I held a poll there and they wanted me to redraw my old Thingol and Melian drawing, so I have been planning and here is the first wip, a very light sketch drawn with 8H pencil, using references from the Art Model app and I really like the look of it so far.
The idea I have always had is that Maiar are taller than Elves, the way elves are taller than humans, and I really love to see the height difference between them, here at the moment of their meeting! I wanted something soft and romantic, and a change on the usual profile drawing I always do.. (It was also something of a curious coincidence that Valentine’s right around the corner.)
Let me know what you think, and I’ll try to keep you posted on the progress, but there’s lots of stuff happening now so I’m not certain how much I’ll be able to draw in the days ahead! Still, I love to hear from you guys, even if I have been total awol lately, but your comments make me want to hang out here more so you know what to do!
