Poor Gwindor, I am always by his side. He looks so sad and gentle here (so gentle that almost angelically, I don't know why but when I look at his face I see a bit of Jesus, strange, I know ). It's heart-breaking, especially Gwindor's hands - creepy, ill and so twisted by suffering, they and his face say all. And I can't stand Finduilas and her "I can't take my eyes off you, Turin" and she looks here little double-faced: she is staring at Turin and it looks like she disregards Gwindor but on the second hand she still touches him (though it can looks like some calculation or just some habit). Of course I like very much your art! All what I am writting now is the proof that your works are full of emotions and that you can beautifully animate imagination of the others. 
I just don't like Finduilas and Turin, not you or your art. You are amazing  



And sorry for my English (but I can't speak Russian although I can sometimes understand and read it)

This drawing began with Gwindor, and these two added to it. I too fully on the side of Gwindor. I hate Tolkien's words: "she could no longer love him, because he was no longer strong and mighty warrior" (from memory, but I hope I remember her well because she is outrageous). If it is normal for elves, these elves I don't like. But rather Finduilas clearly has narcissistic personality disorder. She really still rely on Gwindor, she needs him to consult and share. She uses him without looking at his feelings! But she's already focused on more of the best that appeared on the horizon. Horrible story, but like everything about Turin. Horrible and very sad. And pity them all.

Thank you very much for the compliment, I'm really trying to convey feelings, emotions, and it is very important to me. Thank you that you see it!

I badly know English (always taught German), but for 4 months on Deviant I began to know him better

Yes, I think her quote was like that. It's so sad and strange as for elf (it's rather a human behaviour - falling out of love with somebody; and she even didn't know Turin well, it looks little shallowly; by the way it reminds me of Eowyn-Aragorn case but only as a simple fascination - cause Eowyn of course was wiser and she was probably depressed so she had an explanation ).
I am curious about her and Gwindor meeting in Mandos Halls Maybe she opened her eyes and they stayed together? I don't know.
I pity them also (though I see Turin and his family, especially Morwen, too much proud and in "Go away, I will do it on my own" type; they can avoid so many problems, maybe also their curse? who knows, but they were too individual, too deaf to Thingol's and the others advices :/). Hah, I prefer Turin's victims: Gwindor, Brandir, Beleg, Mim  

Oh, no. Your English sounds fantastic You know German? Wow, I admire, it's so difficult (and how we think in Poland: not very nice in sound, hearing so much sharp and hard, and sometimes funny ). I agree, Deviant (and all similar sites) is very helpful, nothing compares to direct contact with foreign language and its speakers

There is nothing to thank It is a great pleasure to me to watch and comment such beautiful works

Finduilas is a pity, because we are still talking about feelings, and they are like a natural disaster or weather, they are and cannot be overcome. But still love Еowyn is much more "normal"  By the way, I never thought about continuing them beyond the threshold of death, in the wards of Mandos, is interesting. I always thought that death makes wiser (as in the poem Tsvetaeva's to death Rilke), but this may be misleading and, conversely, it stops the development. But for the elves all that concerns the relationship is so fragile. They easily snap on himself.
Turin - man in the clutches of doom, only to be horrified...

In English helps me a lot Google And about the German says the best Italian in the movie "the Brothers Grimm": "What a language! Each word was a curse!"

Still, let me be grateful to you!

Yes But I love this language. There are a lot of profound words to help you understand the essence of things, a lot of words that belong to romanticism, which I love. Without those the brothers Grimm wouldn't be Tolkien!
