At the edge of doom
The Three Hunters ©️ Ruth Brown 2025
I “redesigned” the trio after rereading and rewatching the trilogy and was inspired to mesh a bit of their movie forms, book descriptions, and my own flair on their designs. I think it turned out pretty fun!
I love when Legolas adds some leather pauldrons to his fit at the battle of Helm’s Deep so I incorporated that silhouette into this new design, while leaning a bit more into a woodsy “fey” idea.
Aragorn is largely similar to the movies but physically resembles how I imagined his book descriptions, a tall, dark, and strong man akin to how most Gondorians are described, especially Boromir.
I wanted to embellish Gimli a bit more to call back to his origins from the Lonely Mountain after its reclamation and the abundance of wealth that would have been dispersed through the Hobbit’s company of dwarves and their families. I love his weapons in the movies though so the sort of cut out style is only a bit altered (and more poorly executed) in my design.
Gift my bestie @rosenrotstuff made for me. Thank you, babygirl. Tyelpe is arriving in Mordor, and Sauron (Tyelpe still calls him Annatar) is mindful and concerned about ash getting in his elf’s perfect silky hair.
A Dark Lord, is still a lord.
