“Then his sons beside him, the seven kinsmen, crafty Curufin, Celegorm the fair, [Amrod] and [Amras] and dark Caranthir, Maglor the mighty, and [Maedhros] tall (the eldest, whose ardour yet more eager burnt than his father’s flame, than Fëanor’s wrath; him fate awaited with fell purpose), these leapt with laughter their lord beside, with linkëd hands there lightly took the oath unbreakable; blood thereafter it spilled like a sea and spent the swords of endless armies, nor hath ended yet…”

very fond of the sassy bitterness between giles and spike due to the fact that they are literally exactly who each other used to be. like. you meet a guy who acts identical to the man you're trying to distance yourself from being, like, as much as possible, and hes feeling the exact same things. the DRAMA of it all. no wonder they hated each other

I would love to see Arwen in your art style!!

Arwen is a fave so I was definitely planning to do her! :D

Rivendel to me is Gothic with big G and certainly High Middle Ages, so Arwen's dress is mostly just an interpretation of a bliaut. Her hair and jewelry are mostly though Minoan and 15th century Italy inspired, mostly because I those hair and jewelry are sort of similar in aesthetic and that aesthetic is very ethereal to me. And they use a lot of jewels, which is imo fitting for Noldors.

1/3 of the Fellowship

The Dwarfs are very clearly inspired mainly from Old Norse, so that's the main reference for Gimli's dress. There's also some other influences, like some Bronze Age Mediterranean influences and Iron Age Eastern Europe.

To me Tolkien's elves are very high Middle Ages and Gothic, but for Sindar I mixed in plenty of Celtic and especially Irish influence, and based Legolas' dress heavily on Irish léine.

Boromir's dress I based on mostly Byzantine but also some Medieval Arabic influences as I did for Faramir.
