"I had an errand there: gathering water lilies,
green leaves and lilies white to please my pretty lady,
the last ere the year's end to keep them from the winter,
to flower by her pretty feet till the snows are melted.
Each year at summer's end I go to find them for her,
in a wide pool, deep and clear, far down Withywindle;
there they open first in spring and there they linger latest.
By that pool long ago I found the River-daughter,
fair young Goldberry sitting in the rushes.
Sweet was her singing then, and her heart was beating!"
Nice figures. Nice painting. cheers
ReplyDeleteThank you! The basing is a bit boring, but I decided to use my standard basing for these, even though they hardly get on to the board.
DeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks Barks! The Feather is a bit too white, but I didn't have time to fix it.
DeleteTwo of my favourite characters from the book, nicely done too.
