See my blog [link] for larger versions!

So many ideas and so much else to do. Not sure when I'll get to finish these but I really want to.

Maedhros has successfully persuaded me to grant him a happy pic once in a while.

He should have known that there'd be a price to pay.

Right: Maedhros hunting in Ossiriand. With a Frisian horse that looks diminutive only because my favourite Noldo probably stood around eight feet tall. :giggle:

Left: Maedhros in Angband. :(

Maedhros is a character from J. R. R. Tolkien's Silmarillion.

Reference used for Maedhros' pose on the left. Thanks to ~lintie for some really helpful input for Noldorin riding philosophy (including ref shots)!
Background is a texture from cgtextures,com.

EEEEEEEEE!!!!! One of my fave ever elves!!! Oh dear, well i can't wait for the happy one, but i know i'll also love the Angband one as your traumatic pics always scream emotion. It's interesting you view the Noldor as eight feet tall...i knew they were tall but WOW!!!!

I'm afraid that's even canon (seven feet seems to have been normal). Though I have to say I don't usually depict them like that. (In the few instances where I draw them in dealing with lesser mortals.)

Irgendwie find ich beide Ideen schön.
Die Jagdszene ist schön idyllisch und unspektaulär. Auch tragische Helden haben mal ein wenig Freizeit verdient ;-)
Bei der Kerkerszene gefällt mir natürlich vor allem der Licht/Schatten-Kontrast. Ich bin gespannt, wie das im fertigen Bild rüberkommt. Aber Vorsicht mit nackten Brustwarzen! :censored: Sonst kommen wieder ein paar "Fans" auf dumme Gedanken ;-) ;-) ;-)
