Go not to the Elves for counsel...

"Go not to the Elves for counsel,
for they will say both no and yes."


~The Lord of the Rings
Frodo, Chapter 'Three is Company'~



STEVE SHARP is not an Elf, but a gentleman prodigal of counsels and patient tuitions.
He explained me how to try to get some deeply evocative effects and, logically, my first poor attempt is dedicated to him.

Love this texture with its iridescence. V

Almost true to words of Coleridge: "a painted ship upon a painted ocean"!

The 1st time I read JRRT I was 18. Since then I've read The Lord of the Rings 4 or 5 times and also Silmarillion and others.
Love the texture. Great job.
Cheers

Well if this is your first attempt and you think it is poor, you should have seen my first attempt! Having some great textures to start with is a bonus, and you've got a lovely one here, looks like peeling paint? or partially burnt paper perhaps? But the overall effect is very interesting, and very good for a first go!
