Artist's Comments

My entry for the May Monthly Gargoyles Contest. The theme this month was Fantasy, so I went with LotR. It was ~ ritam who gave me the idea of doing an Aragorn/Arwen fanart. ^^ But instead of being an Elf, Arwen appears as a Gargoyle, and there you go. I loveloveLOVE Human/Gargoyle relationships. :heart:

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions! As you can see, I kept Arwen's dress green and went with a lavender skin color. And also thanks to ~mistermoster from who I drew inspiration while drawing Aragorn. :love:

Oh an one more thing, I like how the hair and outfits of both do a ying yang kind of thing, whether that was on purpose or not, I like it.

Well, she certainly looks interesting. Aragorn doesn't look right, I think. It's true, Human/Gargoyle relationships are cool, but I HATE Aragorn/Arwen. I HATE her!!

I think the silver rings on her horns is a brilliant notion. I mean, it makes such sense! Humans adorn all their, er, our, extremities... and those remind me of the spoon rings I wore obsessively on two giners and a thumb in college, which I have lost, and miss with a fearsome passion. This is a lovely ....damn, need a word... fashion!


Really gorgeous purples, btw, and the greens are swell too.

So then why did you say anything? I dunno, maybe it's just seeing one of the guys I love from the movie with someone that isn't me... and partially it's because they completely screwed up the char of Arwen. *shrug* I dunno.
