Maedhroc and the Troll by ~the-gneech on deviantART
A sketch I did in a meeting at work sometime last year, which I found again this evening while cleaning off my desk and drawing table. It's Maedhroc, my little hobbitey warden from Lord Of the Rings Online, being used as a cricket ball by a cave troll. The architecture doesn't look like Moria, so I'm guessing this is somewhere in the old Arnorian/Rhudaurian ruins of the Trollshaws. I'll probably color this one up sometime, see if maybe I can do it "digital painting" style.
Anyway, as I say, it was discovered as I cleaned off my desk and drawing table this evening. I also found the inks and a lot of development art for Arclight Adventures, which was a bittersweet pang. There was some stuff in there that I really, really liked, and I'm sad that it won't get to be used. On the other hand, I'm also saving it, in the hopes that I can repurpose it later. But it was good to clear the decks, so to speak, so I can have a clean slate to work from on my new project.
Alas, it took me so long to get through all that, that I didn't have any time/energy left to work on any of the commissions I had in mind to work on, so they'll have to wait. For now, I'm going to bed.
G'nite, world, and have an awesome tomorrow!
