Post subject:  SilverRose vs. Altariel Frodo 2 - Aragorn and Eowyn

Due to our tendency to make Aragorn/Eowyn graphics constantly anyway... SilverRose and I have decided to do an epic A/E music battle! :-D Here are the songs we've decided to use:


<center>[s]1. "The Beauty and the Tragedy" - Trading Yesterday
2. "Little Wonders"- Rob Thomas
3. "Almost Lover" - A Fine Frenzy
4. "Yours to Hold" - Skillet
5. "Never Be the Same" - Red
6. "The Thief" - Relient K
7. "Broken Road" - 12 Stones
8. "It's Not Over" - Daughtry
9. "Here Without You" - Three Doors Down
10. "Almost Here" - Delta Goodrem
11. "Let Me Love You" - Third Day
12. "Blind" - Lifehouse
13. "Run" - Snow Patrol
14. "What You Don't Know" - Monrose[/s]
15. "Missing" - Evanescence </center>


We will be doing banners and blends again [unless you want something different, Rose]. Feel free to stalk, watch, and comment! :)

Everything sounds great! :-D

::"The Beauty and the Tragedy" - Trading Yesterday::

I'm sorry this took so long. I started it last night, but then had to get off the computer.

This song is one of the most gorgeous songs in all human existence. At least, I think so. :-D It would fit well with almost any A/E scene, but I decided to use the Dream scene. It seems to be our favorite scene to work with, doesn't it? :)

That's absolutely beautiful - so soft and gentle. And yes, that's an amazing scene. :)

I finally got mine done - I'll have to look at it on a few different computers to decide how I feel about it. :-P

Gorgeous blends so far! Alta, I love the light thing you have going on.

Marioniel: it's called Scriptina and you can get it here: http://www.dafont.com/search.php?psize=m&q=scriptina

Thanks, guys! :-D I agree with Nurr, the light things is awesome. That picture off to the left is gorgeous!

::"Little Wonders"- Rob Thomas::
I don't think I really like this that much. I love this scene, but I've never liked anything I've made from it. I think it has something to do with the lighting. :confused:

I actually think the set is really pretty - I agree, that is a hard scene to work with. The lighting makes it really difficult to use any other color scheme than red, orange, and yellow.

I'm sorry I don't have a new volley up yet; I have been drowning in homework (two quizzes, a test, a paper due, a speech... the list goes on). This weekend should be easier though, so I'll try to get one or two done then.

Ergh. Double post.

My next volley will be better, I promise! I got sick of messing with this one. :duh: It looks like something I would have made a year ago. Ah well... I guess we can both not like our volleys this time. :teehee:

Oh WOW! All of these are stunning! *grabs a bowl of popcorn and stares* I'm definitely going to be watching this battle closely. ;-)

Thanks, Aramel! :-D Tariel, I really really like it! I was thinking of using that scene too, but then I decided to use the Return to Edoras one. :)

::"Almost Lover" - A Fine Frenzy::

Again, I really don't like this, but I have no idea what else to do with it. Bla. I couldn't resist using a gorgeous manipulation from Elfsheen.net, but that's probably what messed me up since it has such different lighting from the other pictures.

I actually like it - it's soft and glowy. :) I'm terrible at making glowy things.

My volley is done. It was another experimental one.

I love it! All of your experimental stuff always turns out great. :-D And by the way, I think it looks glowy. And it looks amazing. :)

I was thinking that maybe we could use some of the manipulations from Elfsheen for one of our volleys. Here are some I think would be great to use:

A/E kiss
Wedding scene
Eowyn sleeping on Aragorn's shoulder
Aragorn and Eowyn
Dream
Edoras

If you think it's a bad idea, just say so. :-D

::"Yours to Hold" - Skillet::

Awesome volleys you two!

Post subject: 

Thanks Esteleth! :) And Aramel, who I meant to thank in my last post. :blush:


Ooh, that's a lovely volley Rose! :) The pictures from that scene are just too perfect to miss. :-P

I think it would be fun to do a volley with manipulations. :) I might even attempt making my own, depending...

This next volley took me a very long time - well, relatively. Close to an hour. It's my favorite A/E song ever though...

haha I hope to keep you converted! :-P

*stares at volley and falls over* That is gorgeous!! *squees* You are a mastermind of all things A/E. :yes:

I love to make manipulations; maybe we could turn that idea into a battle!

::”Never Be The Same”- RED::

I think this turned out ok. I’m not too happy with the color tint of it, but besides that I like it. I don’t think I did the song justice, though. :)

I don't think it's possible to do the song justice - I know I definitely tried hard enough without success. :-P That said, I love your volley. :) I love the main picture of Eowyn you used - I haven't seen that used on a graphic in a while. I also like the picture of Aragorn in the lower right corner. It's a really good picture of him. :yes:


With my volley... I made it on the weekend actually, and spent well over an hour on it. But I still wasn't happy with it at all. So today I went back in to the image (fortunately I'd saved a work in progress file with all the layers still separated out) and changed the coloring on it, and I like it at least a little bit more now.
