So. We have at last that loveliest of Elves, perhaps the best loved of all the Noldor. Dear Finrod, lover of Mankind, discusser of philosophy, savior of Beren, wise, magical, beautiful Finrod. “He died then in the dark, in Tol-in-Gauroth, whose great tower he himself had built. Thus King Finrod Felagund, fairest and most beloved of the house of Finwë, redeemed his oath.” This picture is no doubt Finrod in his youth, perhaps even in the Bliss of Valinor. What do *you* think?

I think he's wonderful! I still love the hair. The "F" is so cute too! I like the way you include the letters now. Oh, and the trimming (or whatever the correct term is) of his collar is nicely done. I like!

I really think this is your best picture overall in every category. The shading, texture, detail and proportion are lovely, and I like where you've stopped the picture, and especially the initial. If only I were an elf lover... Now if he was brawny and uncombed, I might have had more to say.

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Yes, am v. relieved you're not even tempted by my Finny. :21mirk::"

The Dutch hater??? *pointing at above comment* Anyway I think you did a hell of a job here! He really has this majestic look. Yes, I could see Finrod like this.

:-) Hannah Lee Fritz replies: "Thanks! Am glad he kinda seems right. It's better than it being trash. 12Also, Rachel was quoting Austin Powers: Goldmember. Nothing personal against the Dutch.."
