Thanks, guys. It was fun to do, it's been a while since I've drawn anything and been the least bit happy with it.

Nice job, Rjeso!
I agree with Matt. This is going to be tough!

i changed my mind about joining in, mine sucks balls.
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
Dammit, I wanted to see it.

well I can't draw worth a damn, and I used gimp and couldn't figure out how the fuck it works. Gimp sucks peter.
anyways, I did this with paint and some stock internet things which I combined and changed around.

anyways, when I thought of the horn of Eld I saw it in my mind as above, a low-man looking in the window of a seedy looking pawn shop. If I had any skills whatsoever, or unlimited time, I might do it justice, but as it is I cannot.
IF HOWEVER, ANYONE OUT THERE WANTS TO STEAL MY IDEA AND DRAW IT BY HAND, AND DO IT JUSTICE, I would totally appreciate it.

Dude, I love your Low Man. Frickin' awesome, yo!
As for Gimp - I've got it too and can't do a damn thing with it. *shrug* Letti does really nice work with it, though, and I really don't know how to work any of those graphics programs, so yeah.

i swear, i used to have photoshop and couldn't do a damn thing with it either. I have always done ok with Paint, and end up using it alot.
There used to be a program a loooong time ago, for windows 3.0. We had it at school and it was fun, like a paint workshop.

I've tried Illustrator and Photoshop, and have had the same luck as you. I don't know how people can get images to lay over images and blend them in such nice ways. Beats me.

I like the fact that you put a pawn in the pawnshop window.

rjeso and John those are so cool. This is going to be a tough vote.

Got out of my all day lab early and actually got started on mine! Already have the entire horn itself modeled. Working on the strap now.
Are you making a 3D model? Duuude, that would be SO COOL.

John, I love yours. I really do. *smiles*
Anyway noone can be as clumsy as me but I like Gimp. If you have any question about it don't hesitate to ask me. If you find the right way to go on you will fall in love with it.
I wish I could find some time to draw at this weekend. Cross your fingers for me.
Roland would have understood.

I'm not completely happy with my results, but I lack the talent to do much better
Originally I'd planned on just modeling the horn (which my extensive, well ok limited, Googling led me to believe is made of brass), and adding a lanyard of some sort. I seem to have ended up with more of the Pipe of Eld, but whateva..
I also never could get a strap modeled very well, so I figured I'd just export and load into another app... to bad I couldn't get the freakin materials to export correctly.. :sigh:
Anywho's I eventually decided it might be cool to show the battle of Jericho Hill and have Cuthbert dropping the horn as he is taken out. To bad an arrow in the eye looks really lame when rendered in 3D so I left out the arrow..
Having given all my excuses in advance, I present the death of Cuthbert and the losing of the Horn of Eld..
Dude! that last one was cool.

Awesome! I really like that animation!
Cuthbert was shot in the eye with an arrow though.
