: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 08:31:44 AM I want to get a Legolas sketch comissioned, as by the look of it the great ones on ebay are going way over my price range. So far there are four pics that I like, but need help choosing one ::) If people want to let me know what they think, that would be great, and if you have another pic you think I might like feel free to send it my way ;D
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/blackcat20/Leggys.jpg) Sorry bout the set-up of the four photos, i popped them into one file... : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : kbmum March 10, 2006, 08:42:46 AM I prefer the action shot in the lower right corner.
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 08:43:53 AM I like the close up, top right!!
Just curious, do you have to have a picture for the artist to make a sketch off of? : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 08:54:03 AM I agree with Cindy ;D
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : grecopa March 10, 2006, 09:02:02 AM Close up top right is my favorite. Great highlights on that one.
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 09:06:41 AM Just keep in mind that the more of the body is in the pic, the less detail in the features.... so if you like a head/shoulders close up I would go for the top right. There are some action shots of him I really like, I'll see if I can dig them up for you :)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : kbmum March 10, 2006, 09:17:19 AM That's true, but this sketch of an action shot looks great!

I like this one as well... its tiny, but I like that shot, I'll see if I can find a larger version of that pose if you like it! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v213/ferdinand_the_yak/4659.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 09:31:12 AM id be going for more of a close up than the pics above...there are a few on ebay that i like, but quite a few more that i dont... for some reason most of the artists have trouble with leggy's face...
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 09:43:17 AM I also like these

: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:10:37 AM I like the bottom shot; I think that one is a definate contender!
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:18:04 AM This would be an awsome picture if I could find it :P
(http://www.legends-online.com/acatalog/legolas-art.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 10:19:35 AM OOH!! I like that one!! 8)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:20:19 AM No no no no!! This would be nice to have on one card, just like it is ;D
(http://www.global-merchandise.com/images/posters/FP1184.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:23:13 AM It would be (i have that poster on my wall at home), but im looking more for a close up ;D
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 10:30:03 AM That other one Mike posted has action and close up!! 8)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:31:31 AM To bad all I could find was an icon used on a website ::)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:32:23 AM Im sure we should be able to scrounge up a larger version
like this: (http://www.tolkientown.com/shop/images/gallery/1992/legolaslith) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 10:33:22 AM I like the bottom one that I posted... you could ask the artist to do a sideways sketch to fit it all in! Mike's first one is cool too 8-)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:33:58 AM What about this one? just needs to be reduced
(http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/EmmasOneandOnly/legolas20shooting20220bows.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 10:38:39 AM Ooh! i like that one! Double the action 8-)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:39:14 AM I like the bottom one that you posted too...I think that is probably the winner, though I like that one too mike!
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 10:39:49 AM Nope! Can't see his mouth!!
(Sorry! :-X I'm not trying to decide for you!) :rofl: : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:40:35 AM For me I'd go anything with him an his bow...that sounds a little weird :rofl:
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:41:52 AM yep, i want the bow...but the mouth would be nice too :rofl:
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:43:29 AM You want to see those nice kissable elf lips :rofl: Sorry I couldn't resist ;)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 10:44:06 AM Now, now kids.... play nice!
:rofl: : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : EmmasOneandOnly March 10, 2006, 10:44:44 AM Sorry Jo, its late ;)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 10:45:36 AM of course! lips are very important :rofl:
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 12:15:56 PM So its now a toss up between
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/blackcat20/LegolasBowandArrow.jpg) and (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v223/blackcat20/Aim.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : neko March 10, 2006, 12:28:26 PM Just remember it is very important for the artist to be able to see the image.. a tiny image will be no help to an artist. I personally need to see details...so wee little pics don't work for me..
it is funny I did cards of almost all the images you have here..LOL here are most of my Legolas Cards (http://www.airbrushcat.com/images/galleries/lotr/Legolasset2.jpg) V That one being my favorite (http://www.airbrushcat.com/images/galleries/lotr/Legolasset3.jpg) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 12:31:36 PM That one was my favourite too!!! :o :o :o ;D I also like the 3rd one in the top row of the first lot of pictures.
I prefer the bottom one, mainly because you can see more of Leggy 8) Why not both? ;) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 12:35:50 PM I also like the 3rd one in the top row of the first lot of pictures. I like that one too! Cat, it was actually you that I was going to contact about this sketch, as Id checked out your Legolas sketches and thought that you captured him perfectly. : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 12:54:12 PM I also like the 3rd one in the top row as my favorite!!
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 12:55:21 PM I like 3rd one top row, 1st and second top row, and middle, of second batch
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 01:12:55 PM Looks like you have a hard decision to make and I don't think any of us are helping you much!! :rofl: ;)
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : beckham1 March 10, 2006, 01:14:58 PM I also like the 3rd one in the top row of the first lot of pictures. I like that one too! Cat, it was actually you that I was going to contact about this sketch, as Id checked out your Legolas sketches and thought that you captured him perfectly. As Napoleon Dynamite would say "Cat those are flippin sweet" Now are those considered airbrush or black and white? I would take one of each if I was you. And I thought you wanted me to do the sketch for you :rofl: : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 01:29:12 PM As Napoleon Dynamite would say "Cat those are flippin sweet" :rofl: :rofl: OH STOP!! :rofl: Can I have you tater tots? :rofl: Now that is an idea!! Why not get more than one!! : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : beckham1 March 10, 2006, 01:40:55 PM This one gang kept wanting me to join 'cause I am pretty good with a bo staff. Jackie make yourself a Ques A DILLA....and go feed Tina.
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : HPfamily March 10, 2006, 01:52:36 PM :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 04:50:02 PM And I thought you wanted me to do the sketch for you :rofl: That depends; can I see an example of your work first? :rofl: At this rate it might have to be two, but I think three would be a bit out of reach ::) : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : ferdinand_the_yak March 10, 2006, 04:57:25 PM Are you getting both done by the same artist? Or two different ones to compare and contrast styles?
: Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 10, 2006, 05:32:49 PM I have no idea...
I would like an aragorn as well, so maybe one from each of two artists? : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : neko March 10, 2006, 08:20:29 PM I also like the 3rd one in the top row of the first lot of pictures. I like that one too! Cat, it was actually you that I was going to contact about this sketch, as Id checked out your Legolas sketches and thought that you captured him perfectly. Glad to hear that..just send a PM or email and we can work out the details. As Napoleon Dynamite would say "Cat those are flippin sweet" Now are those considered airbrush or black and white? I would take one of each if I was you. And I thought you wanted me to do the sketch for you :rofl: They are concidered along with the airbrush cards.. only because I have to manually tint the paper to get the half tone on there : Re: Which Legolas pic do I use? : blackcat20 March 15, 2006, 04:18:39 AM I also like the 3rd one in the top row of the first lot of pictures. I like that one too! Cat, it was actually you that I was going to contact about this sketch, as Id checked out your Legolas sketches and thought that you captured him perfectly. Glad to hear that..just send a PM or email and we can work out the details. Hi Cat Sent you a pm the other day, just wondering if it came through? Cheers ;D |
