Caranthir - The Storm of his Mind

Description

Okay, I'll admit it: I will never master watercoloring, but ITS JUST SO FUN so I don't really care! :D

Here is Caranthir, the fourth son and the fifth Feanorian I am painting. I'm actually rather impressed with myself. I usually abandon silly projects like these but it seems like I might actually go through with it. Only three more sons to go... (and maybe a mother!!!) (okay now I have to paint Nerdanel as well, damnit)

So with this portrait I really tried to work on contrasts and to use the colors and wamrth as an effect. It was hard as crap, but I'm actually surprisingly happy with it. Though it is only an ipad photo, it doesnt do the original painting any justice at all.
And the background sucks, but I had a lot of fun experimenting with the colors. The lightning was certainly an experiment, and I cant say its perfect, but I do like it.

I feel like I learn so much with each of these I make.
Oh and Billy Magnussen inspired me as a model. (Btw I think that is one of the prettiest faces I have ever drawn, and certainly painted!)

So Curufin next...
