Tag As FavoriteComment		Round the corner came a black horse, no hobbit-pony but a full-sized horse; and on it sat a large man, who seemed to crouch in the saddle, wrapped in a great black cloak and hood, so that only his boots in the high stirrups showed below; his face was shadowed and unvisible. When it reached the tree and was level with Frodo the horse stopped. The riding figure sat quite still with its head bowed, as if listening. From inside the hood came a noise as if of someone sniffing to catch an elusive scent; the head turned from side to side of the road.

You did a very good job capturing the utter evil that is the Ringwraiths. Frodo does need to get behind the tree, or the Rider is going to...cause him to get hurt a lot sooner.

Not trying to criticize your wonderful painting, but....I think from the viewers point-of-view, Frodo can be seen....aha, I love reverse psychology!
