Gandalf, the cover - Hildebrandt brothers Tolkien calendar, my stories about illustrators:)

So, here we came to the end of the first calendar:) It was an awesome journey. Here you can find the links on all the posts in the series:

And finally here is the cover of this wonderful calendar!:)

The interesting thing about composition here: brothers whished to use the idea of the Ring in the drawing to make it more dramatic. So they took away Gandalf's hat so he could fit in a circle.

Sketchdrawing for the cover:

And a photo reference. Really, almost Gandlf himself:)

So, this is where our first journey ends. But it's not really goodbye, we have one more calendar to explore!:) So soon I'll start the second series pf posts:)

Thank you for watching:)

Love, Inber
