amazing light

Both paintings are awesome! Dol Guldur is a fantastic site/set piece, but the great watchtower of Amon Sul remains one of my favorite scenes from the movies.

Hell of an entrance and first day on set Viggo!

I have visited parts of New Zealand where the Lord of the Rings was filmed, and I have a picture of a twilight moment on my desktop. You have captured the exact colours, my friend. Very beautiful.

Thats cool to hear! The lord of the rings version is much more Blue / Green so I figured I'd go for a yellow version instead, different take

It is awesome! I had the idea to paint this very place since I saw the film, but I don't have enough skill even today..

You've definitely improved over the year; this is much tidier. I really like the sense of atmosphere you get into your work.

wuestenbrand Featured By Owner Dec 29, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Great Work ..

ironsides11 Featured By Owner Dec 28, 2013

Fantastic work! I always love the ruins of Middle Earth.

IridescentCatalyst Featured By Owner Dec 28, 2013

Sweet atmosphere!

I-Am-Madbat Featured By Owner Dec 28, 2013

Really, when you think about it, the Lord Of The Rings is a very depressing book, lol. Arnor is basically one big graveyard with a few huddled spots of civility kept safe by a dying forgotten people.

TitusLunter Featured By Owner Dec 30, 2013 Professional Digital Artist

But its great for painting!

I-Am-Madbat Featured By Owner Dec 30, 2013

True!

Nice work!

Well done!

Benjaminvdm Featured By Owner Dec 28, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

Like the other guy said. They're equally impressive, but it feels like you felt more secure with this painting.

DaddyHoggy Featured By Owner Dec 28, 2013

Great lighting, both as a whole background and spilling through the doorway/archway and down the stairs.

Yes, you've improved, but you were very good to start with!
