| 9 May 2005 |  DoriAnn Haskins | I am particularly impressed with the details on the clothing - the laces, and the designs on the fabric. I have such a hard time with that sort of thing! Oh, and of course the fact that there doesn't seem to be any inconsistencies with your proportions or angles or anything. I guess I'll keep practicing. <sighs, grab pencil, scribble furiously, erase like crazy> | |
| 26 Jul 2005 | Vittoria | As stated above in nearly every comment, this picture is wel... picture perfect. The one thing I don't like is his ear. It looks like half an ear, not a full ear. But maybe that was the look you were going for. I guess I could see the symbolism... The cut ear represents his choice to be mortal. | |
| 8 Oct 2005 | Ian | Good portrait, but I think that Elros looks too much like one of the Noldor, with his black hair and elvish ear. Remember that he was a man.   Hope Hoover replies: "Actually, Elros was not a man...strickly speaking. He was Elrond's twin brother, half elf, half man. Before them both lay the choice of which side of their heritage to join with. Elrond chose elven life and Elros chose mortal life. " | |
| 21 Nov 2005 |  Erin E. Johnston | Gaah. T'ain't fair. How come LEGOLAS didn't choose a mortal life?? Elros is beautiful, to be sure, though.

| 9 Jan 2006 | Athyan Stormtree | I love the expression you've chosen for him, it really makes him seem real. | |
| 16 Aug 2006 | Anonymous | I'm not glad he chose a mortal life!! I want to stare at him forever (drools) | |
| 15 Sep 2006 | Ylva | Lovely done. Nice details. *applause!* Like the way you´ve made him half-elven half-man.
Only halfbreeds can choose either side! | |
| 6 Nov 2006 | Elf lover | More yummy than the last is he free tonight? | |
| 3 Nov 2007 | Bootsgrandma | Excellent work. I especially like the touch of him leaning on Anduril (or Narsil since this had to have been drawn before Narsil was broken in the Battle of the Last Alliance). Well done again. | |
