Description Okay...So here is the completed version

It is a fanart piece for AlmaGemela's fanfic 'Road to Rohan' At Fanfiction. net [link]

This particular scene is from chapter 19, and it is as Gimli is watching after Legolas and Rem as they are walking hand in hand back to Edoras it is a very sweet scene. And the minute I read it I knew that I had to draw it

I tried color this time (I know its amazing). Im not a great colorist but Im happy with how it came out. I might try more color in the future

Other fanart I done for her fic:

Beautiful Great work with the folds in the clothes and the mountains! mountains is one of those nature thing which is hard to draw (after my opinion) The coloring is good too
i'm looking forward for more drawings also with colors

Thanks!

Oh I know! Im quite proud of the mountains I've really had to work on natural scenery and such since I mostly draw people. So I'm glad you like the mountains, that means I must be getting better

I've got several things in the works and I'm awaiting the latest chapter from her fic for more inspiration as well

wooooow , ur so good at these things , how do u get all the colors to blend so they don't seem like... out of place cause when i color i always mess it up

Melibells In reply to Legacys-wind [2009-07-02 15:18:57 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

Ummm, it's kinda weird to describe, it's easy when I do it but I've not really had to describe it...but what I do is start with a color and lighten the pressure I put on the color pencil as I go. Then I take the other color and do the same thing from the other direction till they blend in the middle.

I hope that's not too confusing

oh i see it's like the dot painting where u only use dots so that far away it looks like one picture? i forget the name of that type of painting, but yeah i get it, i'll try it out some time, when ever i get realy motivated because it looks like u put alot of time into ur picture

Melibells In reply to Legacys-wind [2009-07-24 22:03:38 +0000 UTC]

It's not really like the dot thing. It's kinda hard to describe but more like shading and blending with color

Is it weird that this picture, the main character being Legolas (and Rem), would make me like Γ‰omer a whole lot more? *is hypnotized by the golden fields*

>_> *redirects attention*...*stares crazily at Legolas' braids*

Other than the fact that I don't know if Rem would be caught dead with her corset on the outside of her dress or not, the whole thing looks fantastic.

And oh lookie! Sunset yellow skies!

Melibells In reply to alexandriatiffany [2009-07-01 23:29:17 +0000 UTC]

No, not weird at all. As I was drawing the fields I was inspired to draw Eomer *searches frantically for more spare time*

you like his braids? I love drawing his braids! Ears, braids, and his shirt open makes me one happy woman

yeah, I was contemplating the corset especially after I glanced back through the chapter, but I thought it would make her dress less boring, since I went with black. Gives pic more color, variation, and visual
elements

Thankyou! I'm glad you like it, especially since I don't use color very often
I likes drawing sunset skies they're so warm and pretty

Mayhaps he would be Karl Urban based?

Me love his braids *is also a happy woman*

Agreed. The corset does spice it up quite a bit.

Sunset yellow skies=Georgia O'Keefe *needs to stop obsessing*

But he is indeed a lovely actor

don't recall thing to which you refer, but the great thing about art is that things can be omitted

Well of course clean he'd smell better that way anyhow

what?!?! You don't like his facial hair?! I admit some guys it just doesn't work on them but he's goodlooking either way. If you need some non-facial hair Karl, go see Star Trek

oh go look at this

I thought it was just to funny now how to apply that to other characters

*wonders what he smells like*

Okay, nevermind about the facial hair. Just got through looking at it and I'm now convinced otherwise
Star Trek is on my list, and I'm gonna go soon, even if I have to go alone (been waiting on someone that wants to go too, but I only know idiots).

That was the CUTEST thing ever! 'Faramirs', LOL. *goes back to look*

Unfortunate. If he had to smell like something barn-like though, I'd pick hay.

LOL that's great.
But I'd blame the parents =O

She needs to draw a Hunting for Haldirs now. *considers suggesting it*
