Outlawed and desperate

Description

"But ever the Noldor feared most the treachery of those of their own kin, who had been thralls in Angband; for Morgoth used some of these for his evil purposes, and feigning to give them liberty sent them abroad, but their wills were chained to his, and they strayed only to come back to him again. Therefore if any of his captives escaped in truth, and returned to their own people, they had little welcome, and wandered alone outlawed and desperate."

I've tried myself at colour pencils - it took more time and effort than watercolour and gouache ( I had to add some touches of paint in the end). The character ( I'm not even sure if he is a real fugitive or a "sent" one) has suffered too - his face, almost finished, has been litterally torn off from the paper and remade again...

I'm such a sucker for colored penciled art because I spent alot of time in my childhood with colored pencil, so I can almost feel the love even more that someone put into their art. 

Your scenery is so quaint, so wistful and you're I think the only artist that thought of the outlaw elves that their brethren rejected out of fear. How lonely their journey must have been. :( (Sad)
