VANDERSTELT STUDIO TTT sneek-peek

Hello everyone.

I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm about my LOTR lithos, and now, the Freaks Board is getting the first Sneek-Peek of part of the TTT painting.
I don't want to spoil too much, but here is a shot of the lower left corner of the art.
For a refresher, I will add the pencil-layout,so you can connect the two to see where this is going. As an artist, I've never had green on the top of my list of favorite colors, but I really like the way it's going in this "Rohan" theme I'm putting together. The watermark is too bad, but necessary at this early stage of things!Don't forget to check out my FOTR lithos available here:

OK, enough talk, I have to get started on Eowyn!

P.s, Is that all in watercolour?, I can tell the general background is but did you complete Merry and Pippin with it too?
Just curious cos I used to paint in watercolours and I know its very difficult to control, for us non experts anyway, so if it is I have even more respect for you(if thats possible)

Wow Jerry! Simply outstanding!

Hi Shell.

Actually, it is not painted in watercolor at all, but acrylic. I use various techniques to achive that weathered look. Woven between all my techniques, I utilize the airbrush as well. Thanks!

JV

Again an awesome piece, I think they are the best LOTR-paintings of them all, Jerry!

Jerry, is that a moss or olive green you've chosen to go with?

Hey Woodsy.

Actually, it is a moss green in some places and an olive green in others, depending if I want a "cooler" green or a "warmer" green.

JV

That is just mind boggling good. I will be ordering this without a second thought.

Jerry, it looks incredible.

Thanks for the early previews as well. Very cool.

I'm truly amazed at how much you are able to pack into these pictures and not make them look cluttered. Really amazing. Question though....it is tough to tell in sketch form and with the watermark lettering, what is it we're seeing between Gollum and Treebeard and beneath Frodo. I can't quite make it out.

Austin, it looks like the battle of Helms Deep to me. When Gandalf and Eomer arrive at the top of the hill with the Rohirrim riders....

crap, all I see are blocked links from current location

Wow!! That looks great Jerry. I love the layout and all the various characters that are going into the new painting. I can't wait to add TTT Litho with my FOTR Litho....Will you be doing remarques on TTT and ROTK Lithos also?
