Description
This was originally just supposed to be a test run with watercolours since I haven't used them in a while, but it turned out pretty well so I decided to post it C:ALthough now I wish I had spent more time on the initial sketch to get the proportions right ... and that I had a better scanner :/
Anyways it's Legolas <3
Yay

AWESOME! I can't use watercolours, it normally just becomes a soggy mess xD I'm sure I'll learn to use em better eventually

THANK YOU! And yes, I have the same problem usually, I guess it's because I'm impatient :/ but this times waited it out and suppose that's the key to success? Perhaps? Who knows xD

Ooh, next time I'll try 8D yeah, I'm pretty impatient haha, especially when drawing OTL
"I WANNA FINISH IT NOOOWWW" Then I end up leaving it half done and start a new one XD

TOTALLY KNOW THE FEELING
That happens to me ALL the time, I swear there are so many unfinished pieces somewhere in my room, probably at least ten times more than my finished pieces XD

"I swear I'll finish them later..." XD

Legolas 
ItΒ΄s so amazing how precise and detailed you drew this, I really have problems with that while working in that medium, your shading is very delicate, I love it!

Hehe yess Legolas, he's such a handsome elf β₯
Thank you very much! Detail has always been some whate of a problem when I work with watercolours, but I find that patience is what I lack XD I never want to wait for the paper to dry to add in details and so they don't show up as much, but this time I did wait and it worked!

IΒ΄m not very patient either, maybe I should just take the time to draw something not halfassed some day

You call your art half assed??!!
So when your art is nonassed ( or fullassed ahahahaha) it's even BETTER?!

Thanks you!! What language is that out of curiosity?
π: 0 β©: 1
Quenya (old elvish).

Ah, i suspected as much! Well then, you just made my day C: how did you learn it?
π: 0 β©: 1
Learnt a couple of hundred words and all of the grammar. Quenya's a good beginner's language, as it's very easy, with a nice introduction to cases.

Wow, you're kind of my new hero! So did you learn this by book, website, course, or something else?
π: 0 β©: 1
I learned Quenay from Helge Faskanger's course, [link]
It's surprisingly easy.
If you ever want some quenya in the drawings, I'd be happy to send along a translation in tengwar. Unfortunately we don't have dictionaries - Quenya scholars just pick up words, so there's no guarantee that the words you want to use will be there. But if they are there I'd be happy to translate.
There's also Sindarin, but my translations on that might be a bit shaky - it's a difficult language (unlike Quenya).

This is amazing! Sorry it took me so long to reply, I really appreciate your offer! I just wanted to keep in in my DA inbox so I could keep that link 'till I got my new computer C: Thanks once again!
