Description I tried myself on a character from Tad Williams' wonderful
Memory, Sorrow and Thorn series.

It's one of his Norns, none with a name, but as I'm fascinated by them and their story I couldn't resist drawing one while I re-read the books for the 5th (?) time now.

I just need your help with the background. Anyone any suggestions? Something fitting? I even thought about something bigger, maybe with even more figures on it.
What do you think?

Mmmm... being a Norn, the best background should be an icy/cold one, or some ruins.

I'll try my best to work the whole pic over. But the ruins sound like a pretty good idea

So cool! your painting skill is becoming reallly good! XD
he'a like talking to someone, like there's someone, maybe his biggest rival standing face to face toward him and yelling at each other in a very cool way and firey aura behind them and... lightning, angry clouds, heavy wind.. n dunno what else for the bg

Thank you I really try my best to learn and practice.

I think I'll add a student of his, just as suggested close to him but his closest rival just face to face.
Firery wouldn't fit as Norns are icy creatures but a storm and lightning sounds cool!

Thank you ~ now I really think about making him part of a bigger picture with more characters. Like a book cover maybe or a wrapping for a box ~ my books of Memory Sorrow and Thorn look so awfully used . . . and I bet they'll look worse if they return from the person I'd borrowed them to. So maybe that idea is not that bad ^^

mhmm, I like him as he is right now.
but I could also picture him in a garden, lecturing a young one?

XD no, at close up it looks rather like he's snarling at someone

Thank you ^^

Hm, a garden, something ruin like would suit well. And someone he's snarling at, definitely a good idea xD

He's so cool! I'm really looking forward to read the story and to draw some scenes together with you!!!

And I like the idea of adding more figures, even if I don't know who ^_^"

My offering still stands: I could read it to you in some of the time I'm not drawing/writing myself. If I read it anyway, why not reading it aloud?

And I bet you'd find many characters to love in there ^^

Then do it!

And I already love Simon after reading some sentences *_* He's like Niku!!!

He really resembles Niku in some ways ~ but (in contrast to Niknuk) he grows up to become a kind of hero ^^ ~ I mean, Niku, too is a (strange) kind of hero but he stays so small xD
