The Sandcastle
Oct. 31st, 2010 12:28 amI don’t know where this image of Turgon and Finrod building a sandcastle in Alqualondë came from, but I couldn’t get it out of my head.
It even has a back-story: Findaráto went with his family to visit grandfather Olwë, but not before he could talk his father and uncle Nolofinwë into letting Turko go with them.

Comments on the drawing process:
I need to think of all the details when drawing, so when it came to the clothes I had to come up with something. I figured those clothes hadn’t been picked by Maedhros because he wouldn’t care less about it. I also thought that if he had chosen something himself, it’d be similar in style to what he used to wear in Himring. I believe newly re-embodied elves would fall back to familiar things and that Maedhros, in particular, would wear what Maedhros used to wear, not what Maitimo wore before everything went to hell. I went and searched for ancient clothing styles, among them Norse and Russian (Himring was cold). What Maedhros is wearing is based on something I found, only he would have used a long fur lined cloak back then. That’d be too hot for the climate in Valinor, though.
