Description As the ship bearing his beloved Frodo faded into the glowing horizon, Sam couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. Dropping the precious book his master had left to him, he couldn't stop himself from reaching one hand out as if to bring him back. Samwise the brave was left alone..

This picture... this horrid, horrid picture.. was inspired by ~haloson . She drew a picture of a sam lion that made me cry. ;__;
So I had to draw my own Sam to vent..
I wish I was better at backgrounds because this might've turned out a lot better. Someone else should've colored it as well. I was obsenely proud of the lineart, but you can't hardly see it in the finished version. Grr....
One of the freakin' saddest moments in the movie! *growl*

But yeah... my first Samwise pic.
Programs used:
It was a humble marriage between Photoshop 7.0 and Open Canvas.

Normally Sam isn't one of my favorite characters, but I just love this picture, it really captures the heartbreak of seeing his 'Mr. Frodo' go away 😭

I was just hit with the sudden realization that I am going to have an emotional breakdown when I read the last book . . . oh, jeez. I'm only finishing the first! Sam is one of my favorite characters ever.

Awww, Sam! This is so depressing! :C Its one of those scenes where you want to be sad but happy at the same time. Lotr had such a beautiful ending, even though you never want it to end. Don't worry Sam, you'll be seeing Frodo in the future. C:
This gave me chills and a little choke of tears... ugh.. why is it so goood....
Anyways this is a real nice piece. Great expression on him, it makes him more huggable than he already is <3

That was beautiful!!! It's been a while since I read the books and I don't feel like getting them now; did you write that or make it up? If you DID make it up, it would be a perfect addition to the book! ^.^

I hereby declare you insane for thinking this is a horrid picture! This is excellent, I love that you used inspiration from the book rather than the movie.
I've seen a lot of fanart of Samwise and I have to say this comes very very close to how I pictured him as I read the book. This is excellent work, I love it.
I'm so happy to see a non-movie version of Sam, nothing against Sean Astin or anything, but he he isn't my book Sam.
The colouring is great too, I think it really works well.
Definite Favourite!

This is literally the saddest and moving pic I have ever came across on DA. I literally had to close the window because I was about ready to cry.

for you (even though I already faved it last night but didn't have time to comment on it back then)

Hmm, I just finished that part in the book like 10 minutes ago (was bawling my eyes out), and I noticed something and had to get on here to check.

That little paragraph you have in the Artist's Comments; it isn't in the book! At least not in my copy. Did you just make it up, or am I missing something..? Lol!
