My love, this is by far the greatest of your pieces in matters of
technique at least (respecting people's personnal opinion)

I personally love it.

The Colour and patterns are absolutelly great.
You have much improve the way that you title
and I love the details of this piece.
Well defined lining and effects all over.

Finally your comment supporting the text
is highly descriptive.

Generally 10/10 :favlove:

And a :rose: for my beautiful girl.
Congratulations

Your master,

Why, thank you!
I paint them above, I found no better way. Just paint them as I see them on tv or other elf paintings...

:heart:

I am planning a big Tolkien series, so you will see ears all the time!;P
