Thorin's Raven Harp Design1

Description

I've been wanting to get back to painting, and one of the things I would love to paint is Prince Thorin playing the harp, back in happier days in Erebor before the dragon attack. Sadly, all of my paints are dried out so I need to stock up on those again.... as well as get back in practice (it's been waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long). I think I've been "thinking" in B&W way too long, too. ;)

So while I have lots I can do, I keep getting distracted thinking about other projects. And this is one of them... Thorin's golden harp. I wanted to give it a dwarven design, and of course a nice tip of the hat to our favorite feathered friends. I'm hopeful that getting started on the design process will perhaps even give me a little boot to make more progress on this painting.

Drawn on drawing paper with a blue pencil, then scanned and converted to grayscale to darken the lines a bit.
