Description The Lady of the White city of Minas Tirith and her sons, in happier times. Boromir is about five, Faramir is newborn.

I think this is the best thing I have drawn to date.

Things I am very proud of:-
The hands. I normally hate hands but these just got there. Took long enough to as well!
Boromir's feet. Had to take a picture of my own in the right position before I could get them right.
Finduilas' ringlets and expression.

Pose reference: [link]
Dress inspiration: [link] from this site [link]
Inspiration for Boromir's clothing came from the film and Faramir's from the picture of him and Eowyn in the Houses of Healing by Anke-Katrin Eissmann

Coloured: [link]

Will be doing another of Gilraen and Estel using many 'Born of Hope' inspirations.

THESE ARE NOT MY CHARACTERS. They belong to J.R.R Tolkien.

I always love little Boromir and Faramir pictures. So adorable!

Although I sneaked a peek at the illustration you used as inspiration for Finduilas' dress... That person actually used an online dollmaker game to make their art. ([link] So I guess it's really whoever made that game who was the inspiration?

Merci!

And I hadn't realised the dress was from dollsdivine, I'll add it too the references list for this one and the coloured version.

This is very good! Boromir's muscle tone looks great, and you made the cloth fall around Finduilas extremely well. It looks very natural!

OH MY GAWD! YOU DID WHAT?! Nah,I'm just kidding. Everyone uses references. It's just not everyone's honest about it! It's very good so, give yourself a pat on the back! Yay! Cookie for you!
