oloriel: A few lines of Tengwar calligraphy. (blatant tolkienism)
Sooo it has been brought to my attention that I should have posted this here as well as on the Tumblesite, which I should have realised by myself but didn't. Since I am reasonably pleased with this one for a change, I'll gladly use this chance to repeat my ramble. Better late than never, I guess.

Because this time, I can actually do a walkthrough of the Artistic Process (TM)! Usually, I paint in A4 and only do one scan of the lineart and one scan of the finished thing because I am teh lazy. This time I painted on A3 paper to have enough space for everything, which meant I couldn’t scan it at all. But I was so terrified of messing the whole epic thing up that I took photos of it after every major step. (How I would have gotten these grainy shots back onto A3 paper in order to try again is a puzzle I would have tried to solve if I’d had to. Fortunately, I didn’t.)

So I shall ramble you through How Lyra Paints Stuff... now.
