You made a great job with the pic. Morwen is very elegant here, yet without unnecessary details. She is beautiful without any doubt but also cold and distant. She is among my least favourite characters and I considered her as one of the worst mothers in Silmarillion (only beaten by Elwing in this category), but she is also character that one cannot simply forget. Many other Edain women are similar to each other  but she is special. Her fate was terrible but I disliked her so much that feel no pity for her and believe she got what she deserve for the pride and behaviour. Nevertheless, it is a mastery of Tolkien to create a character that evokes such strong feelings, without committing any crime. You portrayed her perfectly: majestic, proud lady of noble house who cares for her pride more than for own kids, too proud to love kids.
