Since Tolkien's lady characters in The Lord of the Rings are few and far between, I had to draw her. Besides, she's kind of scary... =))

This is gorgeous! I love her hair, you can really see the light in it. Her features are very elven looking too, she really does look like the Galadriel i pictured when reading the books. Did you use all colored pencil for this?

w0lfb0y - shes an elf... not some chick from playboy 4 u 2 perv on... Elves are described as 'tall and fair' by Tolkien... not Pamela Anderson (sp?) look alike... I luv this pikky!!! this has inspired me to go back and fix up the pikky I did of her last yr... keep it up!!!!

very good. I like her pouty lips. she looks sad, with a slightly far away look in her eyes...

a very cool picture of her, but she looks more like an elf princess of less age. I know evles do not show age, but in Galadriel In my mind I see an elf queen who rembers like few around her do the old days of ancient glory and whos looks emits power yet beauty. a very nice picture I will say.

An absolutely lovely composition! She looks proud, yet disturbed, looking up at something worriedly. Her sheer garments are just right, although I admit I hadn;t thought of her wearing them when reading the books, but to see it drawn I think she could maybe just pull it off! Although I have to agree witht he last commenter: she doesn't quite seem to have the wisdom in an aura around her that I always pictrue Galadriel with....but then, I have no ide ahow you'd draw that. 2 Great work!

I am pretty sure that Galadriel had very fair hair... but this view is interesting as something different.... though Galadriel will always be golden haired to me.
