Artist's Comments

Theme:
As you might guess, this photo-manipulation has a Rohan based theme. I got inspired by several different things. First and foremost it has been the wonderful Rohan themed stock-photos from Chonastock. I instantly wanted to use one of those gorgeous Stock-photos to create something. It took me some time to come up with something and after that to find the right stock-photo material to create my vision.

Inspiration:
So what does this manipulation portray? Well, I do read a lot of Lord of the Rings-fanfiction. For the un-informed amongst you, Lord of the Rings is a Fantasy-Story written by J.R.R. Tolkien. But I can't imagine anyone not knowing Lord of the Rings.

So, I once came across a wonderful story called "Heart of the Horselord". In that fanfiction Éomer, one of Tolkien's characters, gets injured and rescued by a group of peasant woman. Eventually he falls in love with the woman, who nutures him back to health and she becomes his queen. The woman is called Lisswyn and this manipulations protrays her, in away.

Well, that was the background story, now for the facts.

Did you get it on my website? Because on dA I put the watermark on, due to recents rips.

I am glad you like it so much, you chose to use it as a wallpaper.

The very existence of flamethrowers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, "You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done...”

Thank you. It took me quite some time. And I edited it again this morning, after finding minor flaws. *laughs* I guess, one is never quiet finished.

You're welcome. Oh, I know. I'd never submit anything unless I made myself say, "It's done." I always want to pick at it.
