Description "So, Telvo - you led us all these miles, promising incessantly that this spot was a sure place to find game, and here we are, after hours of waiting..."

"I am looking. Aren't I? If you stopped complaining for one moment, Pityo, something might cross our path. Can't you feel it? Something or someone is watching us..."

--



Just a little exercise to keep the creative juices flowing amid the complete madness that are term papers: Amras and Amrod, the twin sons of Feanor, on a luckless hunting trip in Ossiriand. (Personally, I blame the Laiquendi, scaring their game away quite intentionally.)

I love the setting very much, you captured the two of them beautifully! I've always had a soft spot for Amrod and Amras, and this is one of the best pictures I've been able to find by far!!

Thanks for sharing! <3

aha - the twin syndrome strikes again It's all Zulians fault for posing as an elf so very well!

I love the soft yellow colours in this image. The moss and ferns also add to the feeling of lush softness. These colours blend so well with the clothes - they really seem to be part of this forest

The model's definitely at fault - in part. Not his fault what our crazy minds make us come up with.

And thank you again for the critique, it's really lovely to get a more in-depth comment every now and then.

If I have time I much prefer to say what I like about a piece - its more encouraging, and besides it is very helpful to know what other people think works well

The forest is so dense and looks magical. Poor twins! Hope their older brothers eherm... Celegorm...don't torment them so much when they come back empty-handed.

LadyElleth In reply to jennycuenca [2009-07-18 09:02:08 +0000 UTC]

Maybe they'll find a nice deer or rabbit yet? And if they're lucky, Celegorm and Curufin have already gone to live in Nargothrond by that time.

Oooh, because of this picture I went and spent the afternoon looking for suitable real-life equivalents of Ambarussa! Check it out on my LJ.

Very very cool! Maglor was always my personal favorite of his sons. The atmosphere is simply lovely; I love the lush greens.

Thank you - I'm very pleased with how that came out, too... and yes, Maglor (and Caranthir!) is my favourite as well, a deviation featuring him should come up soon as well (maybe even a Sons of Feanor series, if I can find all the right stock? ), and then there are a few manips featuring him in my gallery already. However, the redheads are great as well. Aw, heck, I like them all.

I'm always on the search myself. If I find anything that could work for any of the sons, I'll let you know. My favorites are good places to look, especially under "potential projects" on my art account. ( *Lindowyn ) We could collaborate!

That would be awesome, I'm looking through your faves right now - good male stock is so hard to come by!

And a collaboration - HELL YEAH!
