First time doing an oil rub which is basically an oil underpainting then layering color pencil over the top. A fun process, I always saw pictures that use this technique but never knew how they were produced so it's nice to finally know haha. We had to choose an artist that was inspirational to us and I love John Howe's work, who basically has done numerous Lord of the Ring and Hobbit paintings and was brought on to help lead the design of Peter Jackson's movies. So thanks to this man and fellow artist Alan Lee, the movies basically look the way they do thanks to these two men. I thought it would be fun to give him Gandalf's pipe too :D
