Ой, мех какой шикарный, опять я не читала, но это круто, мне нравиться его выразительное лицо, явно он думу думает...

Любопытно оказалось поделать быстрые рисунки, (чтоб я что-то за день сделала, такого уже давно не случалось).
А фанфик великолепен, есть даже в аудиоверсии (что для нас весьма удобно)). Тонут они, на корабле, который льдами раздавило, король-чародей наколдовал, что их в эти льды занесло.

_{I just realized that pictures of giant men hugging people make me feel safe}

lol great job especially on the textures of the different fabrics/hair...

Your drawings are always so amazing and beautiful - here I love the textures of the fur, and the details in their faces and hands! This is so tender even though there is such sternness, worry, a shadow of doom in Arvedui's face. He's not a character I ever thought much about, but you make him real to me.

Thank you very much, my dear!
This is a part of history of Middle-Earth which we know so badly, but I had a chance to read a one just amazing comprehension of story of Aranarth and his father, Arvedui, it was strong)

It sounds like a very interesting fanfiction! Is the story in Russian?

EKukanova Featured By Owner Oct 22, 2016

Yes, for this moment only on Russian, and the book is upcoming.

That's a shame - I would have liked to read it. But I'm very happy it inspired such fabulous drawings we can all enjoy!

TarGrond Featured By Owner Oct 18, 2016

This is just beautiful ... can we expect more of this Arnor-related ilustrations ? Those are some amazing stories that need more proper vizualizations!

Спасибо! Рисовалось специально к д.р, вручено)

It's amazing how lively you portrait those lesser known characters. I've always found the story of Arvedui, his queen and her family very interesting, so I'm happy to see your version of this royal couple!

EKukanova Featured By Owner Oct 15, 2016

I did not knew that part of history of Middle Earth absolutely, but after reading that fan-novell vas just fascinated by that strong characters, Tolkien talks of them very brief.
