SciFi and Fantasy Art LotR - Darkness looms (2003) by Maya R. Hirschman


	Look, it's Sam and Frodo ! Have I mentioned how much I love Sam? I love Sam. And, it's hard to have Sam without Frodo so here they both are, on the cusp of darkness, the long trek to Mordor already weighing down upon them. Done with 2H, HB, 3B, and 6B pencils while watching 'Grease' on television.

18 Dec 2003	Megon Noel 'Emoni' Haydes	Loading... You did a really great job on this. Your shading is wonderful. I love the expressions on their faces. They seem so consumed by the moment. You did a great job freezing time in this pic. I love their hair and clothes as well, very realistic. Wonderful work. ~~Megg~~ Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Thank you, thank you ! I think I did a good job with it, too, and remain quite satisfied with how it turned out."
22 Dec 2003	Seraph the Archangel	Loading... Mmmmyyyy pppprrreesscciioussss.
31 Dec 2003	Emyln	Loading... woah thats so good. It reminds me of like those pictures of two little kids holding onto each other happily. They take the meaning of best friends forever to a whole new understanding. awesome job! Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Whee ! Thanks ! Even with their backs turned to each other, they are connected and supportive."
1 Jan 2004	Rae E. Hamburg	Loading... Hmm, Sam looks like he's thiking very hard about something? What is it? I love how Frodo is playing with the ring, and I love their haaaaair. munches on the fuzzy hobbit hair You've done some lovely shading here! Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Sam is deeply troubled by how the ring is changing Frodo. Anyway, thank you for the comment."
31 Mar 2004	Maja Arian Carter	Loading... ahh Seraph the Archangel placed a comment about what I was thinking while looking at the right half of this oiece, great work by the way. Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Heh, I think you two are not alone in that thought, though I only meant Frodo to be contemplating the burden of the ring. "
2 Nov 2004	Rosie Gamgee	Loading... Whoo greased lightnin' - a streak of sandy and rizzo maybe!! Nah - I'm probably wrong! Great Pic!! hugs Sam

12 Feb 2008	Glo 'the Bug' Bowden	Loading... Oh man. I love the expression you’ve captured on Frodo’s face. It’s chilling. --You can tell he’s not thinking healthy thoughts as he toys with the ring. And Sam is ever watchful, and ever noble.
21 Apr 2008	Hobbiten	Loading... I reallt like it! Tagged it as favorite, twice!
24 Feb 2009	Chelsea L Pennelly	Loading... I love it!
