Mental Image To Share With Y'all: Maedhros And Fingon's Younger Siblings Deciding To Plan Their Wedding

@tolkienfamilyweek Day 5: Found Family

Maglor is trying really hard to be a good dad. Sometimes he goes a little overboard.

yet another círdan piece. this time with a young gil-galad testing his luck with a crab

Character design of Maglor

For Maglor, I wanted to make a design that was a clear break away from his siblings. This is a significantly more elaborate, flower-vase design with themes centred around the ocean (self-explanatory lmao). The colour design inspiration is taken from Greensleeves, which coincidentally mentions a “heart of gold” in its lyrics - I also wanted a design that was elaborate down the centre of the torso to highlight the strength of his voice.

The other significant change worth mentioning is that while the others had a “3-motif,” the elements in Maglor’s design come in pairs. This change was made with regards with his and Maedhros’s last stand to reclaim the two remaining silmarils.

The instrument is a modified pipa with the head redesigned to a crane, referencing his fate to outlive his entire family.

Individual design posts Fëanor | Nerdanel Ambarussa | Curufin | Caranthir | Celegorm | Maglor | Maedhros

The seven sons of Fëanor were Maedhros the tall; Maglor the mighty singer, whose voice was heard far over land and sea; Celegorm the fair, and Caranthir the dark; Curufin the crafty, who inherited most his father’s skill of hand; and the youngest Amrod and Amras, who were twin brothers, alike in mood and face.

@arafinwean-week 2025 Day 2: Finrod

Suddenly Finrod there a-swaying sang in answer a song of staying, resisting, battling against power, of secrets kept, strength like a tower, and trust unbroken, freedom, escape; of changing and of shifting shape, of snares eluded, broken traps, the prison opening, the chain that snaps.

I have the Tumblr equivalent of cleaning supplies...

a mass tag replacer

a way to find ALL of the tags you’ve ever used (mostly?)

and a way to find untagged posts

There will be some seriously intense organizing here soon.

you’re hearing it more and more
