This is one of the cases where I simply didn't know where I was going with the colours ("grey" wasn't specific enough, apparently). Once I'd made up I mind that I wanted to go for "chilly", one decision led to the next - keeping Maedhros mostly in unusual cool tones, but getting dark enough with him that Fingon in front would have to be even darker. I never envisioned this piece like this when I started out, but then, I rarely envision any colour very clearly, and often make choices as I go along!

Such a "warm blue"! Amazing.. And I love this slightly greenish gray of the background)

I totally approve this choice of colours!

Very nice! I really like the juxtaposition of the cool red browns in the back with the warm yellow on the horse in front!

Stunning. You are definitely on a roll, Ms Dolfen. You are going to have to do a 2020 update of your Silmarillion art book. Call this a pre-order of the hardcover edition.

Did you know that, just today, I thought that another art book was in order? I think I'll put that on my Easter holiday list.
