Woo! I drew that, then scanned it, then edited it and coloured it on photoshop. It's supposed to be Luthien waiting for the hunting party at the foot of the tree Hirilorn.
I can only draw lanterns so I added one in.

I like it. Very abstract in a way. I like the light effect. Very nice.

It's nice. Is the jumping waves in the cloak are thw wind? (I guess so. A ver nice pic. I can't imagine myself doing this. Too much work and not much talent)

better than most pictures of Luthien, I like her pose. A lot of pictures of her just simply suck. But this ones good.

I agree, a most excellent portrayal. I like the way you didn't show her face; what artist could really capture it? Better to leave the face of Luthien un-seen, in my opinion. :)

Very pretty. Simply beautiful, one might say.

I agree wholeheartedly. I like it so much, I've made it my wallpaper. (Changed the Eowyn & Aragorn one)

Marvellous!

I like it. It doesn't try to force a picture of her into your head like most artists would try to make Luthien as they picture her and screw your idea up. Not this one. It's more about the feeling than the detail.

Beautiful pic Ninquelote. Very atmospheric. The mood is perfect with impending sorrow implied......

<ps. I've pinched it for wallpaper too! - If that's ok? >

I wish I could see it. Sounds good to me, but I can't get to it. Shows some display that I'm not allowed to go on?? Help anyone??

Interesting. although I have already seen the pic, I clicked on the provided link just now, and it said: The page cannot be displayed because you support George Bush.
The page you are looking for has conveniently stepped out. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, like your thought process, or you may need to adjust your browser settings.


What the hell's that about?:rolleyes:

Well at least somebody is having fun. I sure as hell wasn't amused.

I got the 'you support Bush' message too! And anyone knows I do NOT support Bush!

It is kind of funny though...

Nononono... Perhaps I've moved the link. Let me check.

The 'support george bush' bit is my 404 message, I made a custom one. :D

The link to the noncolor one is:

P.S., I don't mind if anyone uses the image as their background, in fact I'm flattered!

Eh, I haven't drawn any more since I did this last school year.

that is an excellent pic of luthien, especially how her face is not shown, which adds to her mystique...

Ninquelote
11-11-2003, 03:22 PM
I did that because I didn't know how to draw her face! If it's the most beautiful thing under Iluvatar, then how the hell can a mortal depict it?

Umm... okay, I just tried to look at the picture and got a page saying: The page cannot be displayed because you support George Bush. The page you are looking for has conveniently stepped out. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, like your thought process, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. What the...? Who put a stink worm up their nose?

Methinks you've moved it again: This page cannot be displayed because you've got issues.

*If you've had a rough childhood, make sure you seek counselling.
*If your doctor has enabled it, a Ph.D. in psychology can examine your psyche and automatically discover just what the **** is wrong with you.
If you would like a Ph.D. to try and ponder them,
click Detect Psychological Problems
*Some sites require 100-point IQ. Take the IQ Test located on many annoying popups, then present the reults to The Proper Authorities to determine if you're just mentally challenged.
*If you are trying to reach a site as insecure as you are, make sure you have a good 'listening ear' to tune it all out. Click the Psychiatrist menu, and then click Cheese. Then open the Socks tab, and reroll the Ichy Tasty installation.

Oh, heheheh, when I bought a domain name for my website I had to change the name of the "images" directory. Don't worry, I'll fix the links...

I wish I could say how beautiful I think your picture is, but there aren't words to describe it!:D It isn't just estethically wonderful, it also gives a strong feeling.. Just incredible.

Ninquelote

Thanks. :o
My inspiration was the thought of Luthien standing under the tree Hirilorn waiting for Beren, Huan, Thingol, Mablung and Beleg to come back from slaying Carcharoth with the jewel.

Wow, its beautiful. Beautifully simple with a great sense of movement. And the lamp really seems to be giving of light. I love the way you can't see the face, it leaves it to our imagination, which is a good idea as she is so beautiful that no face we could draw would possibly be beautiful enough. I love it!:)

Nice, though it could be any dark-haired woman.. Luthien has to have a face in my opinion. She is the morningstar.
