#‘hashtag feeties’ has to be the cutest tag i’ve ever received on my art

[frodo-with-glasses]

Late to the party for Artist Commentary Ask Game, but could you one for "Bearing the Ring Bear" (the one where Faramir is carrying Frodo) with 3, 10, and 18? <3

Hi Windmill!! 😊 Great choice!

(See the original post here!)

3. What does [character’s] facial expression mean/what’s going through their head?

Frodo’s just fainted, so let’s talk about the other two. Faramir’s expression was meant to convey a sort of gentle pity and respect; he’s just now realizing what an enormous burden this little Halfling carries, and it earns his admiration and sympathy and moves him to help. Sam, meanwhile, is only concerned for his master, and trots along ready to help at a moment’s notice. For both of them, their concern is for Frodo.

10. What new technique were you trying in this drawing?

Feets ;u; As I said in the tags, I had to draw Frodo’s bare feet from an angle I’m not used to, and I’m really happy with how they turned out. His sweet little toes, gah.

18. What was your favorite response to this post?

Well, your tags are wonderful, of course X-D Everyone had some really sweet responses to this post, but I think among my favorites are @calliopechild’s tag “oh this one got me RIGHT in the honey nut feelios”, and this gem from @weezlbot:
