I'm really dissatisfied with the way he looks. I don't think I captured his likeness at all. But I'm working on Gimli now and the beard is killing me (I chose a high contrast reference so the hair is impossible) and I wanted to post anything. So here he is.

It's a bit funny, really. Him and unfinished Gimli are sitting together on my desk. King of Mirkwood and his son in law. A family reunion;)

What if were were both princes among our people? What if we kissed over the borders of our lands? And we were both boys? What then?

“Boromir! I cried. Where is thy horn? Whither goest thou? O Boromir! But he was gone.”

Wondering if Eomer's hands have healing powers because he is also a king.

Remembering that before Eowyn wakes up, Aragorn puts her hands in Eomer's, and it's him who calls her back.

For his little sister, at least, it's his healing hands that save her as much as anything.
