Study for Eowyn, 12x15.5, chalk and prismacolor on toned paper.
Making headway on my Eowyn and the Witch King piece, finished this off yesterday and will probably start in on a similar drawing of the Lord of the Nazgul tonight. I'm pleased with the way this came out, I think I hit a nice sweet spot with rendered detail and passages of silhouette. Let me know what you think!

Rob, beautiful drawing. I like it alot. I am not sold on the facial expression. I think you should push that farther in a direction, whether that is fear, anger, whatever. Sell that emotion!
Haha, thanks Mark! I'll tweak the emotion in a few more sketches, before I start pushing around paint. Still on the fence myself with what I want to convey in that moment - will have to read Tolkien's words a few more times and see what I come away with.
This is lovely - I especially like your attention and restraint on the detail. I have to agree on the expression - nail that and you have an INCREDIBLE piece!
Thanks Julia! I'll get working!
Really nice, Rob-I'm with the peanut gallery on the expression, but I know that's NP for you to tweak-
