The Road Goes Ever On

“Before the rising of the sun Eärendil slew Ancalagon the Black, the mightiest of the dragon-host, and cast him from the sky; and he fell upon the towers of Thangorodrim, and they were broken in his ruin.” - the Silmarillion, J.R.R. Tolkien

My giiirl Idril

Fëanor: Greetings, my beloved sons. And greetings to you, foul brood of my unloved brothers.

Finrod, currently playing songs with Maglor: Hello!

Fingon, lounging on the couch: hey

Aredhel, raiding the pantry: 'sup

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.

I always imagined Sauron/Gorthaur as this mysterious figure with eyes hidden away and only a cruel smirk to see, i made this with no prior warm up or character idea so the colors are a bit messy and some things don't make sense but i enjoyed doing it, so it was worthy it.

Some Celeborn/Teleporno Sketches for Celedriel Week !!

Melkor

hi it’s me drawing maedhros again 🤣🤣

le cambie el color de ojos ja ja

still on my silmarillion kick and back on my ‘recreating napoleon paintings’ kick here’s the whole Formenos crew probably right after taking the Oath

Achilles sketches because I really like the illustrations from the Grahame Johnstone twins.

tolkien fans: "omg you HAVE to read the silmarillion so you can know about my poor little baby blorbo finwenduwë"

the blorbo in question:

Young Celeborn and Galadriel, dancing together hehe ^_^

I thought I'd post this for for celedrial week because I just found out it was happening. I actually drew this a few months ago, which is why it doesn't fit the prompt for today. I'm hoping to draw something new for one of the days coming up, but I thought this would be fun to share for now!

This one is a bit on the rougher side, and I wasn't as practiced with markers at the time, but I still think it's pretty cute.

I was having writers block and so I took a break and soon enough it was 3 in the morning and I had impulsively sewn together a tiny mouse you’re welcome

For those of you who asked, I have made a sewing tutorial on how to make your very own Peaches the Mouse!

I see people reblogging this with “to buy” but this pattern is free??? Someone even asked me “why don’t you charge money for it, it took you forever to put the document together” and I said “Not a lot of people have money and if they have some fabric scraps and a couple of buttons lying around they can make themselves a little mouse friend for free and that might make them happy and that makes me happier than receiving money???” Make yourself a liddol creacher! Heals the Soul!

Need some indoor crafts right about now? Peaches is here to help soothe anxiety!
