Well something went wrong
– I was able to load these images into the Mithril Gallery 
– previous attempts had failed :rolleyes:Milo wrote:I love your work David. Miniature set is so complementary.
Your painting is getting better every time you show us a new artwork. You may be able to challenge Master Elroi one day! 😆
Diorama, well natural and sourrounded by trees, what else could an elf wish ?I wonder if maybe 1 or 2 horses could be with them. :rolleyes:
Challenge Master Elroi :lol:, no he is the Master of the Brush and my eyes are getting tired as the years pass so I have to rely on visual effect rather than raw ‘skill’ to achieve my results, but thank you very much for the kind words.
As to horses, well I didn’t even consider them to be honest as they are not mentioned in The Book, and I am sure if they were then the tired hobbits would have been put atop of them. That said, maybe a ‘pack-pony’ would’ve added some ‘interest’, but I do try to stick to the book where possible.
Thank you Master Tree and others who have commented, for your kind words, I have included in the Mithril Gallery section some work in progress images that show how the idea evolved from using plastic trees to the ‘real thing’ and Sea-foam (if you haven’t tried this it is very useful for trees/bushes).
Anyhow, Illuvatar willing I hope to ‘pull my finger out’ and add to the dioramas with some key scenes from the Long Expected Party to The Grey Havens (and Samwise returning home
).
