you've got me again, as you know I know nothing about Lord of the Rings characters so can't tell how well you have depicted them, but what I can say is I love sketches, I like the way you have used shading, and admire your ability. Best wishes.

Drawing figures that are familiar is difficult as everyone knows what they should look like. But if I hadn't known them I would say this was excellent characterization. Wonderful texturing of the hair and shading about the face. I loved how you captured the expression in the eyes which give them life.

I felt you lost some of that great attention to detail in the clothing though.

Have you ever thought about tinting? Lightly adding some color with colored pencils over already shaded drawings. Not that this needs it but it might be something for you to experiment with.

Excellent! Love the shading. Very close rendering of the charachters.. If you added color, might make them look even more like the charachters. But overall, great job!

A great addition to your collection. You bring their personalities alive through their eyes and expressions. The hair has nice texture and light. You're a fantastic artist. This piece seemed to be missing the flare of the others..maybe it's the lack of detail found in the rest, in the ear and the robes scaled down. The character on the right (my right) is the best, his face lit up and richly portrayed. Never stop refining your gifts.

A NICE PICTURE BUT I HAVE SEEN THE OTHER WORK YOU POST AND THIS IS NOT THE BEST , THE FACES SEEM A BIT UNEVEN AND OUT OF PROPORTION

THis is a nice sketch. THe faces are engaging and the eyes are well done. The details need more work to really make this one be great. The leaf and clothes are part of the subject and should get the same effort as the faces. Keep it up.

Nice job. I don't know what these characters look like but I'm sure it's a good rendition. The faces in some way seem flat or one dimensional to me but you definitely have a great talent.
