Century--the chief of the Thunderwater Holt--after the death of his mother, seeking comfort from his long-time friend (and lover) Mossberry.

It was fun to draw him all young and (kinda) innocent.

You can see the hurt in his eyes, what a great expression on his face!

This is really sensitively drawn, both in the expressions and in the handling of the line and shading.  The emotion is heightened by how simply it is drawn, creating focus on the character interplay, yet there is rich detail scattered here and there to add interest.

You have asked for a crit.  The male character is very well done. My only suggestion is how the female character is drawn in perspective.  It is really difficult to draw a head from 3/4 behind!  You've got her facial features down very believably, which you deserve credit for.  What is awkward is the placement of the ear.  In a profile, the ear canal (hole) will be in the center when you measure from the nose/jaw to the back of the head.  You've got it in the center here when it is supposed to be 3/4 view.  Visually, it needs to appear closer to her facial features, leaving a wider and more full view of the back of her head.  She probably needs more skull back there, too.  As to drawing an elf ear in that perspective, well, I remember doing a similar view somewhere in IABB.  I couldn't figure out how to draw an elf ear at that angle and Wendy said "there is no correct way, you just have to fake it."  LOL
