I started this piece back in January
but didn’t work on it for a while, since I was either too exhausted
,or to afraid of screwing it up. Interior Paintings combine all the
things I’m afraid of and not good in. But you can only improve if you
get out of your comfort zone, right? 😀So what’s this? It
originally started out as a random sketch of a random anvil, because
I wanted to practice prop design. This turned into a full interior,
then into an elven inspired smithy and then into Celebrimbors Smithy.
Celebrimbor is a character of Tolkien, the elf that forged the Rings. I never played Shadows of Mordor and I have no idea if there
are any official concepts of his smithy. Couldn’t find any. This is
just my own take on it, tho I included the hammer he has with him in
the game.I really fought my way through this and got
mentally exhausted by this piece. I wonder if it gets easier some
day?
