Artist's Comments

Idril Celebrindal of Gondolin, daughter of King Turgon, wife of Tuor, mother of Eärendil. She is said to have great wisdom and foresight, and was aware that something was rotten in the vale of Gondolin long before Morgoth launched his attack on the city. The cornflower features prominently in her device. The eagles were the guardians of Gondolin, and an eagle was later made the emblem of the Gondolindrim.

I just love it. The flower is a really nice touch, and the lighting is awesome. I'm not just favoriting because is a Tolkien's work from one of my favorite artists in DA, the work itself is worthy. (flattering points: 1000 :D)

Abrazo!

It's great. Has a ethereal qualitiy as well it seems like was painted. Awesome work! ;)
:iconladyelleth:
Again, thank you. :) The painted effect mainly happens through the use of textures, and more textures ;), but then you probably know that already.
