Description
Hi everyone---here is my latest lord of the rings render, im really excited to post this one!
I have tried this scene several times before, and i finnally got one that I think is worth posting.
I worked in a period of 3 days off and on, first I posed and clothed the figures--then worked on the terrains/textures, and finally I added in the terrain details and clouds in photoshop. The helms and weapons are from freestuff.
"Upon great pedastals founded in the deep waters stood two great kings of stone: still with blurred eyes and crannied brows they frowned upon the North. The left hand of each was rasied palm outwards in a gesture of warning..."
-The Fellowship of the Ring
one of the coolest descriptions in the book IMO, the full excerpt is a page long, but I just found the main part of it.
thanks for looking!

Okay, I have a Fellowship poster with THIS VERY SCENE from the movie, hanging on my dorm room wall. When I first saw your image in the gallery, I spent the next 10 minutes looking back and forth, from computer screen to poster to screen to poster. And I can BARELY TELL THE DIFFERENCE!!!!! And you're telling me you created this scene completely from your head, with nothing but the book as guidance?!?! That, my friend, is nothing short of pure GENIUS!!!! An outstanding image if ever I saw one!!
meticulous and detailed job!! congrats. Luis
