He was a lord of the Green-elves hastening from Ossiriand, and the door-wards brought him to where Dior sat alone in his chamber; and there in silence he gave to the King a coffer, and took his leave. But in that coffer lay the Necklace of the Dwarves, wherein was set the Silmaril; and Dior looking upon it knew it for a sign that Beren Erchamion and Luthien Tinuviel had died indeed, and gone where go the race of Men to a fate beyond the world.

Well done! A superb depiction of one of my favorite scenes from all of Tolkien's writings.

Wow, this scene is fantastic! And reading the lines again evokes a sort of... nostalgia and wonder, especially when coupled with the picture. Your Dior is so fantastic! The robes! His hair! And I do agree this isn't a common scene to draw at all, which makes it all the more interesting :)

Haven't seen this scene illustrated before, I must say, neither is Dior a common subject. That said, I like your Dior. He's a bit Luthien-y, but that's exactly what he should be like (even his Grandpa Thingol thinks so). And OMG, their hair, I want to touch it (if only I could do so without getting arrow-ed to death...), it's so well done!

Yes,I prefer to choose subjects who did not become too common.The biggest problem is the details of appearance of characters - with many of them too little information...hair color,height and so on.For example,I was able to make the queen Berutiel blonde,though many would prefer black hair.It's even interesting.Like a game.
And thanks for the kind words about the hair^^

This was a great choice of a scene to depict! I've never seen an illustration of it before, and it is a touching moment...
