Katy Rewston 2001-11-16 oooh i lioke this chris, i only have one crit, and that in the wave horse, the 3rd one from the left, its nose is a little thin. unless you meant it like that. i love the black riders though. its fantastic   (christiaan iken) which horse?water or dark riders horse? Anneke Hut 2001-11-17 I agree with Mark, your artwork is making us speechless, Christiaan. Wonderful picture again! Every new piece you make is a surprise and a delight!   (christiaan iken) cheers anneke, im just having ag reat time illustrating tolkiens work, i had wanted to do pencil drawings a year ago of his world but coudnt get the desighns quite right, im glad that on the most part my idea of middle earth is comming across in my work.though ofcourse the mind is much more lavish than what i can currently do. Marilyn Alice Boyle 2001-11-18 Ohhh! I love this one. The riders and their horses are so spooky. I don't really want to see inside their hoods. You can see they are being overtaken by the white ones on a wave. Great work as usual!   (christiaan iken) cheers, they are invisible,someone commented here but they just rude so i deleted them, u can critisicise but u dont have to be rude about it.. sorry, not talking about u at all marilyn. John Shannon 2001-11-20 Fantastic picture Chris !! the detail colors and the sharpness of it all, well done.   (christiaan iken) cheers john but ive got to redo it,, J.P. Targete 2001-11-27 I like the palette in this one though it does not have tons of detail like your other works but it still holds my eye, continue to explore this, sometimes less is best.   (christiaan iken) Thanks J P, as u konw I don't care too much about detail, the black riders are almost sillouetes. Just wanted to add a few lights here and there, and yes I totallly agree with you, less is often beter. Cheers for visiting jp(kisses ass here ) Christopher Poole 2001-12-10 HA, run you sissys aint no gettin by the river here!! Great dipiction! Even more spectactular then I amagined in the book.   (christiaan iken) ya, i cant wait to see how they see it in the movie, wonder what it wil look like. Janne Vuollet 2001-12-10 The colours... So powerfull! "What's that noise?" "Holy crap! Run! I mean, ride!" Sorry... Just had to 8)   (christiaan iken) hehhee, im sure dark riders dont say holy crap.lol. Dan Mills 2002-06-16 Very cool version of the story. You did really well with the figures and horses. It seems that you have mastered acrylic paint.   Katharina Niko 2002-08-03 O_O GREAT!!! And so baeutiful... makes me dream... I really love it!   Christopher Shepard 2002-10-11 I think your interpretation of this scene is far more impressive than what I saw in the recently released movie. It is more epic because it is on a grander scale. Furthermore, it is more colorful and just flat out more dynamic. I wish peter Jackson would have drew inspiration from this pic, oh well, guess that's what we artists are here for, to visualize things at their ultimate.   Renn Ireigh 2002-11-28 That looks really good. It's a very dynamic image, and though all of the horses have their bits of anatomically incorrect-ness, given that they're made of bits of shadow and waves, this is appropriate. Great job!   Ihsan Alnasrawi 2003-02-05 Great shading The horses are good, but I really like shading on the cloaks of the Nazgul. the black riders really stand out against the bright colours of the water. Well done!   Stephanie Laberis 2003-09-27 Wow! Striking! You've achieved such richness and depth with the water horses, I can feel them crashing towards me. Kudos to you!   Post a Comment
