Prince Turukáno, Already Dreaming About Hidden Cities ✨

Tried some soft bluish colour.

Fingon.

Thinking about Fingon all day long because he sang in defiance, your honor, and resolved to heal the feud that divided the Noldor, and he won great praise and then in sorrow took the lordship of the house of Fingolfin. A shadow of doubt fell upon his heart, and even still, his heart was uplifted, and he shouted aloud: ‘Utúlie’n aurë! Aiya Eldalië ar Atanatári, utúlie’n aurë! He sought not his own, neither power nor glory, and death was his reward.

What am I to do with this guy.

All hail Volcano Snail

“Oh brown haired man with a lightsome air So blithe and bright and fair Each tuesday when I trysted thee again All the week was worth to me And so young were we when first found love Found ourselves in the hazel grove Oh brown haired man with a witching smile Full of love and free from guile So soft beneath the lonely hawthorn tree Came thy whispered truth to me I’ll be with thee, my brown haired man In the sunshine or the shade I’ll bring times of bliss to thee So sweet thy kisses were to me And thy voice was melody” Brown haired Man - Sava

for @feanorianweek day 4: Caranthir

The Silmarillion according to someone who has never read it but only picked up bits and pieces from the tumblr fandom. For shits and giggles! 

Maglor

for @feanorianweek day 2: Maglor, Music & Songs of Power

this is a small comic idea i had about maedhros and fingon as kids and i rly wanted to draw it out! i think that is fingon the oldest of fingolfin/finarfin’s kids and thus the only one of the bunch for a while, so it was interesting to think that fingolfin would initially tell him to stay away from uncle feanor’s boys before loosening up in later years

but srsly tho i love the relationships that finwe’s grandkids have with each other so i wanna do more exploring of that! i didnt know if i should post the comic one panel at a time and decided to do it all at once, so i hope it doesn’t look too convoluted now that it’s posted 😬 

BONUS: returning to fingolfin + a pretty chill anaire

i’ve started planning some similar comics about maglor and elrond, or maedhros in thangorodrim, so if there’s any you think i should do first feel free to suggest! 

IDEA: The Silmarils were, in fact, crystal containers with either:

- fluorescent proteins, or (even more likely)

- luciferases (proteins that catalyze chemical reactions producing light, e.g. in fireflies or jellyfish)

because that's probably how the Trees could shine in the first place.

“Gil Galad is Fingon’s son” “Gil Galad is Angrod’s son” WRONG

Gil Galad is a random orphan Fingon saw one day and went, that looks vaguely son shaped, so he just started raising him as his heir, while refusing to answer any questions about where he came from which led to multiple interactions that went as followed

Courtier: “But high king who’s son is that”

Fingon: “What a silly question he’s mine clearly I gave birth to him”

The same poor fool. “Forgive me high king who’s his… ummmm… father?”

The literal high king of the Noldor: *Scandalized gasp* “how DARE you ask me that”
