Oh dear - another, more recent, unfortunate attempt at Luthien Tinuviel that I want feedback on. (Starting to think I should give up on her!)Coloured partly by hand and partly on the computer. Some of you will know that the design in the circle directly behind her is one of several devices described by Tolkien himself - don't worry, I lay no claim to that! And no, she doesn't have really short legs - she's standing in deep foliage! :)

I LOVE THAT BACKGROUND!!! What does it say in elvish? (i need to brush up on that stuff)

11 Rachel E. Johnstone replies: "My Elvish is bad. I don't even know if this really says 'Luthien Tinuviel'!"

I really like her face, she is very elegant. but her arms are to short and her hands too little. but I love the dress! and the hair!

1 Rachel E. Johnstone replies: "Tiny hands. Tiny arms. I have arms like a monkey. My brother said that."

Beautiful face! I know she's standing in foliage, but next time showing more of her lower body might help. Wonderful work!!
