Description

Legolas' song about Nimrodel in LotR:

(...)
A stare was bound upon her brows,
A light was in her hair
As sun upon the golden boughs
In Lórien the fair.

(...)

Beside the falls of Nimrodel,
By water clear and cool,
Her voice as falling silver fell
Into the shining pool.

(...)

(sorry Amroth, didn't paint you this time...)

=====
Nimrodel and Amroth went through... ah... an accident, like :iconsuper-pleb: said... a sea accident, in fact... =(

anyway, check the pencil version for the full story.

This is supposed to be Nimrodel in Valinor, after they both died and went to Mandos and were reborn in Valinor. At least elves are patient, they had to grow up all over again... :XD:

This is young Nimrodel (only about 100, hehehehe) watching Amroth coming. I guess they must have found weird to see each other with different faces... but Nimrodel was still beautiful, singing and with golden hair...


happily ever after :aww:

Yes, this has nicest strokes, but I still find the lineart takes away much of the effort you did :s
And I sooo love when people draw stuff that's not explicit in the writings (but they are implicit though, not those horrible "fan"arts where they made up things and disgusting pairings :no:).
