Lord of the Rings Legolas

This was actually a picture of Orlando Bloom that I drew and decided to add the long hair and elf ears. I'm not quite sure I like this one because the shading is so light. His lips are also shaded too darkly. Basically, I'm putting this up here as a reminder to myself...on how to shade! ^.^ And, scanning this thing was really, really tough, so, the quality isn't that great. So sorry! But I hope you enjoy it!

Yay! LoTR fanart! This looks lovely, I think. He has a very distant, dreamy expression here; the only thing I see that's a little off is his hairline, it's slightly uneven. But you did an excellent job! I know how much of a pain portraits can be, and this looks beautiful.

  Thanks again! And yeah, the hairline is screwy. I tried to make it look natural, but the shading ended up being so dark that it just looked...off. Oh well. I was extremely proud of this one because I was at the beginnings of shading!

  It's beautiful! I'm not a big Orli fan myself, but if this were a poster, I would soooo hang it on my wall! Great job.
