You know Luthien having short hair kinda makes sence since she did cut her hair to make a cloke and a rope when she escaped doriath

Yes, I know. I like to imagine her being dressed as boy for her escape too

The idea of Luthien with short hair is very cool!

Never imagined her with short hair before, but coming to think of it now, would even fit well her strong personality!

I think her hair will grow again - this takes place quite early after she had cutted of it
And thank you for your feedback, it pleased me a lot

you are welcome I drew her with long hairs, but Luthien was probably so mesmerizing even without hair she would look very pretty haha - a 'modern version' of her would be cool as you did

Well, it wasn't supposed to be modern version. I just wanted to follow text of book   I think it's pretty romantic that she was able to relinquish part of her beauty for Beren

oh yes I understood your approach, indeed this is a thoughtful attitude of her to do it I was sort of "thinking out loud" on how she could look like today, haha

Luthien with short hair?)

OK, I guess it's really weird, but let me explain that.
When she was making her magic cloak, she cut of almost all of her hair (I think if she loves Beren so much, she can give him all - including her hair too ). This picture takes place only a month or month and few weeks after it, so her hair is still short. But before the story ends, it will grow again
And the idea that girl cuts her hair because of her lover is one of most romantic for me
I hope you will understand despite my poor English

I also very bad know English, so I wrote just this question. But I really liked that you drew it that way. Yes, that's right, all right! And she look really good with short hair like in the picture)
