Watcher of the Bruinen for the LoTR card game



A while back I did this piece for Fantasy Flight games' Lord of the Rings card game. I do love Tolkien, so this was a lot of fun. I did a few color studies because really wanted to push my colors here to get that sense of early morning, as if this guardian has been standing still for a long time. It made me realize how much those help, and started me on a trend of using them regularly. 

I don't believe I will never tire of painting elves.
