I found his site recently and there are some wonderful pictures on it - particularly like the Black Foe's Residence. Looks like he exhibits too, although his current exhibition is in Holland. |
 Đ Back on the dried frog pills now, honest HDS |

I like the pencil drawings and the horses just look fabulous. The watercolours are not quite there yet IMO

the elves arent tall enough.. but what got to me the most is that most of them had the same anime face  I hate anime faces such a shame, since otherwise, he;s a great artist (plus you shoot a drawn bow from your chin, not your nose...) |

Yes, I know what you mean. When I returned to look the Japanese influence is definately coherent. Shame that cos the details are great! Is he drawing that bow from the nose? Looks like the ear to me! lol  |

I'm impressed with the pencil and ink drawings (particular the patterns and the architectural renderings), I think they have a real spirit about them (especially this one). I agree with E.G. though, I don't like the faces of many of the characters, and I think the colour on the pictures actually spoils them and "cartoons" them to a certain extent. |
 All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us

Yes, I have to agree with you there, the colour definately spoils them and turns them into cartoons. I like his architectural drawings too.... this one of Laketown from the Hobbit for example.  especially when they are NOT inspired by the films. |

I thought some of them were quite lovely.. Here are a couple that I particularly liked..
I thought this one was incredible.. Not "cartooned" at all..
I really liked the detail on this one.. Especially the celtic like knotting on their weapons, helmets, and shields..

There is so much work and detail in those! They are very good  |
Threw you the obvious and you flew with it on your back. Difficult not to feel a little bit disappointed and passed over when I've looked right through to see you naked and oblivious and you don't see me. But i threw you the obvious just to see if there's more behind the eyes of a fallen angel, the eyes of a tragedy. Here i am expecting just a little bit too much from the wounded. But i see through it all and see you. So i threw you the obvious to see what occurs behind the eyes of a fallen angel, eyes of a tragedy. Oh well. Apparently nothing. You don't see me. You don't see me at all.

Hmmmm, I do like that rendition of the dwarves or is it dwarfs? eek a source of eternal debate! anyway I digress................. Those dwarves are very like I imagined them when I first read the books.... all those centuries ago LOL Still think the colour makes the pics look cartoony though.... bet that Smaug would be better without the colour... if you see what I mean. |
