Description
After a rather elaborated sketch I did for someone, [link] , There was a short but hard discussion about how to give critiqe.I'm still not sure how to answer that, because I can't speak english good enough to not hurt anybody and still say what I want to.
So I decided to read the discussion and find out what I should do to become better. This is my try.
I'm planning on doing all 13 dwarves of the Hobbit-movie till 1th of April.
That's a good practice for drawing hair and noses, I think...
So here is my first portrait and it is of Ori, whom I thought to be easy because of his rather straight hair. I forgot about that damn scarf...... XD
Ori is played by Adam Brown, who is as adorable in real life as is Ori XD
(I plan on doing the background in the colour of their hoods Tolkien described in the book, sadly Ori had grey....
Others:
Thorin -> [link]
Kili -> [link]
Fili -> [link]
Bifur -> [link]
Bofur -> [link]
Bombur -> [link]
Dwalin -> [link]
Balin -> [link]
Ori -> [link]
Dori -> [link]
Nori -> [link]
Gloin -> [link]
Oin -> [link]
Please tell me what you think, I will go over this again after doing a few other, hopefully to make it better....
(There is a bit more contrast ad hair that you can't see because of the photo I took, I'll have to scan it again, but therefor I have to go to a copyshop and it is snowing at the moment......

Wow, he looks absolutely perfect!! And the level of detail you've achieved is amazing - especially in his knitted garments, they look like they must have taken so long to draw!

Just been looking through your gallery and it's awesome! I love all of your drawings of the dwarves! Especially this one! I too did Ori at one point and I agree, the scarf was a pain!

Fantastic job with the shading and attention to detail with this piece. The sweater must have been a real pain to draw I bet but this looks absolutely amazing, great job.

Jep, pain is the right word for that.... And I started with him because of the straight hair so as to have something easy to start with!
Thanks a lot for the nice comment!

The detail in this is incredible! I love the jumper especially though something about it makes it look a little flat (the form is shown really well in the face/hair but when it gets to the clothing its lost). I think it might be the strong contrast through out, I would suggest toning down the white detail on certain parts.

Grishhak In reply to TheElvishDevil [2013-01-17 23:20:26 +0000 UTC]
Hm.. You mean that I could darken some white areas of the clothing for getting the contrast lower in some parts?
(Please excuse me asking, I have a few problems with the english language ^^)
Thank you very much for comment and fav, it means a lot to me

You're welcome
Yes, that it what I meant ^_^ You have done it already in small places but I think the image could really benefit with it through out the clothing.
(No worries <3 and sorry, I do tend to word things strangely sometimes).
