SciFi and Fantasy Art His lord´s will by Anke Katrin Eissmann

'Then all were silent. But at length Faramir said: 'I do not oppose your will, sire. Since you are robbed of Boromir, I will go, and do what I can in his stead – if you command it.' 'I do so,' said Denethor. 'Then farewell!' said Faramir. 'But if I should return, think better of me!' 'That depends on the manner of your return,' said Denethor.'

J.R.R. Tolkien: 'The Lord of the Rings', Book 5, Chapter 4: The Siege of Gondor

20 Nov 2004	Jac	Loading... I looked through your entire gallery. Faramir is by far your best and obviously fav char, and you do him so well. This scene is exactly how i saw it in the book. The look on his face spells how he feels exactly. I remember not liking Denethor when i first read it because of the way he treated him. You whole gallery is a thrill to look at, and i thank you for your amazing imagination first comment two stepThank you very much for your comment.
27 Nov 2004	Jelena Dunato	Loading... This is the moment in the book that always makes me cry. Faramir is not my favourite LOTR character (and the film just made it worse... eh), but here, in this scene, he is absolutely great, so heroic and so human at the same time. It is perhaps the most interesting thing about him - being the less-loved son and the unlikely hero - at least in his father's eyes - but ready to die for... love? honour? acceptance? revenge?... hm, this could be the beginning of a long discussion that does not belong here. Anyway, the way you depict him makes me love him. You bring him to life. Wonderful, wonderful work.
13 Aug 2005	Derek L. Hand	Loading... I absolutely adore it Faramirs face, that look of determination yet reluctance, gorgeous.
7 Nov 2005	Ira Hakane & Houki Handorra	Loading... Houki:...holy Shiiate prayer mats, what did you use to do this with? It looks like watercolor, but NO ONE is that good with water color...For Left-Sock's sake look at the texture of the cloth! The shadow! The hair! Omfingg...passes out cold on the rug
2 Jun 2006	Kat Minty	Loading... le gasp! .. I cried. Okay, I'll put it more accurately: I BAWLED. When I read it, and when I watched it. This is truely a heartbreaking moment for Faramir.. to think, how he managed to go on after being so easily cast aside by his FATHER.. wipes tear
20 Jan 2007	Luke	Loading... youve got to be the cockiest artist on elfwood. Your paintings arnt even all that special. I woder why every one likes you so much. I dont think you will ever be much of an artist untill you learn how do do real expresions.
14 Jun 2008	S.E. Charles	Loading... When I read and watched this section, I cried, too. I love the angle of Faramir’s face in this one. It’s perfect.
15 Oct 2008	Celebrian	Loading... sobs hysterically this has got to be one of the saddest scenes in the entire world. This is my favorite of your pictures of Faramir
10 Oct 2010	Anon.	Loading... Not that they all aren’t good, but this is one of your better works in my eyes.
