Description Finally I managed to paint a Lord of the Rings fanart  This is a scene from the first movie, where Aragorn and the hobbits rest at the Weathertop.
As I started learning watercolor I thought this would be a nice and easy subject for the beginning: clouds and sihouettes. Now I know dark clouds and dark subjects in general are not easy at all  But I'm fairly satisfied with the clouds and sunset on the right, the ruines and the foreground.

Die Texturen sehen fantastisch aus und geben dem Bild noch mehr Dynamik, außerdem eine tolle Stimmung durch die Farbgebung! C:

Ooo the lights and shadows on this watercolor are fantastic! Yes, achieving darks in watercolor isn't easy, but you did very well! Love how you did the gloomy atmosphere. Including the lone figure on the cliff is such a nice detail, too.

Nice! I like the irregular patterns of light and dark on the clouds. Did you use the alcohol trick?

if you use a little dab of alcohol on a cotton swab, it bleaches out the color in an interesting way. I assumed that was how you did some of the crinkly edges.

I fully understand. I did this African Elephant to teach myself wood-carving:

  

I had an instruction manual that said cherry-wood is not for beginners - but I diden't care!
