Something quick between works.

This is Turin Turambar, from Tolkien's Children of Hurin.

Really good book. I recommend.
It's one of the most "cinematic" books. It could easily turn into a film. It would create a new genre. Fantasy Tragedy.

Anyway, i love drawing Middle-earth stuff. Most of it doesn't get in here in DA because i don't showcase it.
I'd love to get some Middle-earth themed comissions.
I spent years trying to match the styles and things and i pretty much dominate the visual style of middle-earth we know.

About his appearance, in the book turin's described as the most fairest man to ever live. But i never imagined him like that. In my conception it's impossible to suffer as much as this guy did and reflect beauty on the out side.

Anyway, here's Turin.
An unfortunate sad chap.

Fantasy tragedy indeed! that's gotta be one of the most depressingly fantastic books I've ever read. Y'know what.. I think I'll go reread it now.

Amazing!
The Silmarillion is probably my favourite book of all times. And I loved Children of Hurin. This drawing really does Turin justice

Awesome. Turin was truly a broken man, such a sad story.
