Ooh, that's nice, gyps! All those spikes make him look so menacing!

I know, right?? I'm the worst at armor design, and just clothing design in general, especially for villains. And then Gypse is so, so good at all of it so that I can feel bad about myself.

But hey, I got a new eraser! It works a lot better than my old one.

... And you tell me to quit feeling bad about my stuff.

You'll have to remind me of who these guys are, but until then... wow. Really picking up on a kind of empty sadness in the eyes of the one with the star on his pauldron.

90% of the costumes in my drawings are me bluffing my way through and hoping no one notices.

Maedhros and Fingon in chapter 13 and...well...Maedhros and Fingon again in chapter 20. They're my favorite characters to draw (they're also the ones in the set I'm wearing.....and in the comic........) The right half of that drawing isn't in the book exactly, but it's not too hard to get it to fit in, since the scenes aren't very exhaustive in what happened and what didn't.

I touched up the drawing...now I'm trying to decide whether to update it here on the forums.

Great work, Gyppers and Hobbit!

@hobbit: okay. I was wondering if it had any relation to your set.

@Jaygee: Thanks, sister!
@Ariel: Yup. *nodnod*

So today was a reeeeally good day for drawing, and I ended up getting three sketches done this afternoon, and a fourth this evening. Two of them were almost-full-page, so yes. I like days like this.
Unfortunately this one scanned kind of weird and ended up with smudges and streaks across it in odd places, but there's nothing I can do about that.

"But Feanor followed him, and at the door of the king's house he stayed him; and the point of his bright sword he set against Fingolfin's breast. 'See, half-brother!' he said. 'This is sharper than thy tongue. Try but once more to usurp my place and the love of my father, and maybe it will rid the Noldor of one who seeks to be the master of thralls.'"

Oooh, nice!

Thanks, Jaygee!

I feel bad for pretty much dominating this thread, but I found a quote that kind of actually worked alongside a drawing.

(Told you these two are my favorite to draw. )

Love it!
