another bit of art for @tolkiengenweek - for the prompts "family" & "group dynamic" :D

Has this been done yet? I had so much fun with it :D and it's the first time I've drawn Curufin & Amrod & Amras, so it was a blast to figure out designs for them! I'm pretty sure Celegorm is crouching for the photo. There's no way Maglor's taller than him.

day 1 of @tolkiengenweek: fingon & maeglin in mandos.

a little while ago i did this piece and @tanoraqui mentioned maeglin in the tags. anyways i was thinking about which nolofinwion would be best at dealing w maeglin's trauma.

turgon means well, but maeglin probably doesn't want to talk to him. aredhel is a) his mom and b) part of the traumatic backstory so that would also be difficult. argon never even made it past the grinding ice (and frankly i havent figured out his personality enough to do one of these). fingon, however, kept nicely to the theme of eldest son & youngest grandson and made sense trauma-wise.

so anyways here's fingon helping maeglin deal with the aftermath of his time in morgoth's captivity and the trauma of losing aredhel.

I like to think Celegorm left Huan with Maedhros while he recovered after Thangorodrim because having Huan around calmed Maedhros down and made him feel safer. Caranthir brought the pillows and the blanket is Fingon's. Helping Maedhros heal was a community effort that made them set their various grievances aside for the time being.

(credit for the idea goes to @outofangband whose worldbuilding and headcanon posts about trauma and recovery inspired this)

@tolkiengenweek (for the family/community/animals prompts)

Gandalf and Bilbo by Bag End, for my comic adaptation of The Hobbit <3. I love old friends who are united by their love of causing problems on purpose

Rushing

Aredhel, Celegorm and Curufin where just strolling about when in comes Finrod.

Fingon is just living in the moment, and the Ambarussa take a leaf out of his book.

Poor Maglor has to catch them now, but thankfully his brother Curufin comes prepared with a net.

A (very rushed!) picture for @tolkiengenweek 2023: Group Dynamic.

Checking my files I notive I have a bunch of sketches for certain grandchildren of Finwe but not many from these guys, so I wanted to correct it!

@tolkiengenweek day two | animals | a fox on business of his own

A fox passing through the wood on business of his own stopped several minutes and sniffed. ‘Hobbits!’ he thought. ‘Well, what next? I have heard of strange doings in this land, but I have seldom heard of a hobbit sleeping out of doors under a tree. Three of them! There’s something mighty queer behind this.’ He was quite right, but he never found out any more about it.

another piece of gen art for @tolkiengenweek! Naneth has a little shadow ❤️

challenging myself with a style that's very out of my comfort zone to force myself to focus on shape design more, but I'm really vibing with it!

@tolkiengenweek Day One: Family

My favorite little accidental family: proud dad Maglor with his future leaders. I hope somehow he learned what they went on to accomplish 💔

[swanhild]

@tolkiengenweek A day late, but have some tiny Finrod and Turgon for the friendship (and family) prompts.

I imagine Finrod was always dragging Turgon off on little adventures. Here they're building cities sandcastles and having fun on the beach :)

(I have no excuse for their clothes except that Anairë and Eärwen were besties too, so I'm gonna claim they liked dressing their kids up in matching outfits, with them being the same age and all.)
