Sons of Feanor! These two are 'the youngest Amrod and Amras, who were twin brothers, alike in mood and face. In later days, they were great hunters in the wroods of Middle-earth....' I know, I know, they didn't do too much to be spoken of specifically in Tolkien's books. But the picture had to be done. I really wanted to get this out of the way and move on to the meatier characters. And anyhow, it didn't turn out *all* bad. They're hunters, see. Snippetry from the Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Nice... You can tell they are sons of Fëanor. They have that unmistakable look of complete self-assurance and magnetism that they inherited from him. Just one question: Which is which? *laughs*

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Magnetism and self-assurance. Yum. >2 See, the one on the left is Amrod, because he's always really vain about his favorite pair of bracers. And the one on the right is Amras, because he has a vision for the future, see. (Caranthir should be appearing any day now!)"

Amrod/Amras: "Please, no, I'm terribly camera-shy!"

Amras/Amrod (rolls eyes): "Sheesh." "But I would rather be concerned about yon wolf drawing near..."

Sorry. I couldn't resist such a compulsion. I really do like this, and I think the expressions and poses are interesting. There's something ethereal (spelling?) about these two...I've got it: thier eyes. They have wonderful, intense, deep eyes. I'm envious. 1

I'd write more but I need to go. Namarie for now!

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Hee! That is very much the thoughts that occur to me when I look at this piece."

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Hannah art. ::takes a moment to bask in it before commenting:: Ok, I'm ready. Mmmmmm, elf twins. 12 I especially like the pose and expression of the one on the right. Very intense. The clothes are nice... I don't think I've seen so much detail in clothing in a Hannah piece before. 12 Anywho, I love this.

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "The clothing was a throw-together because I sometimes have guilt over my clothing. But I honestly do envision the elves in simpler, softer clothing. I try to make the base fabric look very soft and fleecey... Plus, they did a lot of hunting and stuff so they can't always wander around decked in jewels. :21quish::"

I love the detail in their faces and the pose. However, their faces appear to be to large for their heads...

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Thanks for dropping by and for commenting. The problem with this picture is that the viewer is looking down on them just a little bit, from maybe a low tree branch or so. I have problems with this angle always, so it's not readily apparent. 8"

This is what i see

"turn that camera off!" but u know being kings and all escaping the media is very hard lol this is why we know so little about them!

Anyways cool what more can i say?

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Hee, yeah. That is a very "no pictures, please" pose. It's cute, anyhow."

All your drawings of the sons of Fëanor are very impressive but this one is definately my favorite: pose, clothes, hair and shadow and everthing. I like it.
