Description "Then Fingolfin beheld (as it seemed to him) the utter ruin of the Noldor, and the defeat beyond redress of all their houses; and filled with wrath and despair he mounted upon Rochallor his great horse and rode forth alone, and none might restrain him. He passed over Dor-nu-Fauglith like a wind amid the dust, and all that beheld his onset fled in amaze, thinking Oromë himself was come: for a great madness of rage was upon him, so that his eyes shone like the eyes of the Valar. Thus he came alone to Angband's gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth to single combat. And Morgoth came."
~J. R. R. Tolkien

Use more contrast, more emotion and character, more anatomical action and power, that's all what I can say about critique. For the rest this is yet again a very good drawing, with a theme I like.

Like I told Jardar, I had to change the contrast a bit in Photoshop because the scanner made Morgoth's cloak look really weird. It still sort of does, but it helped a bit.

You're right about it needing some more anatomical action and power, I guess the poses are a bit stiff.

Thanks.

Ikke meningen å høres negativ ut, men albuen på armen som holder hammeren trenger å bli mindre og rotert mot venstre og "bak" slik at proporsjonene blir riktige. Likeledes burde kanskje skjoldet vært litt bredere, og kanskje litt lenger ned, for nå virker det som om skjoldarmen er trykket inntil kroppen. Gjerne litt mer kontrast på tegningen Ikke ment som annet enn konstruktiv kritikk...


Ellers er det veldig bra! Stå på.

Tusen takk for kritikk.

Kontrasten er faktisk satt litt ned i Photoshop. Kappen til Morgoth så veldig merkelig ut på scannet, og det hjalp litt. Den ser faktisk fortsatt mye bedre ut på originalen.
