Moody Mountains : Landscape Challenge

I have just now put the final touches on my challenge piece, which this week was landscape. I was inspired by a fellow artist to do something hobbit-y. But it comes from a deeper desire to generate a 26 card set of Lord of the Rings related ABC flash cards! How rad would that be! M is for Mordor. O is for Orc. And so on.

Maybe I will get to it someday

This is supposed to be Bilbo contemplating his journey to the Misty Mountain. But those mountains look rather moody do they not?

Haha, there is a mountain in there that oddly enough reminds me of Lumpy Space Princess, what the heck! Teehee

Here is McCoy’s adventuresome illustration for the landscape challenge. It looks like it could be concept art for an epic film, am I right?

So cool!

Landscape Challenge : Joe Kramer

Here is Joe’s lovely landscape illustration. Though not what he had originally intended to illustrate, it is a beautiful experiment in technique and color. I think it turned out great! It reminds me of a scene in the Disney film Fantasia. Just beautiful!
