Today's speed paint is a frankly indecent Feanor: no jewels, no braids, just flowy hair in the wind… I'm almost ashamed of myself! Maybe I should tag it NSFW? XD
I hope you don't mind too much <;

One more drawing based on a stress-relief doodle from a work meeting. The death of Fingon. This scene is so terrible and emotional(at least makes me emotional) and once again, I couldn't find enough artwork that captures it. So I made one myself. Also here, I wanted to make light that looks like tree-branches ♥

today on Fic Ideas I Will Never Write:
Gil-Galad is a random elf who happens to look exactly like Fingon. He's successfully conned his way into becoming High King of the Noldor, and lives in fear of someone discovering his secret.
Elrond is 100% part of the Noldorin royal family, and wants out of the line of succession by any means necessary. He is also very good at forging documents.
They embark on a ridiculously over-the-top, entirely illegal adventure to get Gil into the royal family.

Fingon is the archetypical hero. He does great deeds of valor and daring, notably Maedhros’ rescue and rushing out to defeat Glaurung. He is not terribly afraid of consequences, which is wonderful when he is the only one he’s responsible for. His talent is forging ahead and inspiring everyone to follow him.
Fingolfin is the archetypical king. He is the one that holds his people together across the Helcaraxë and brokers peace with Maedhros after he’s rescued. He’s incredibly aware of every possible consequence, which is wonderful when he’s responsible for a whole kingdom. His talent is uniting everyone and inspiring them to move forward together.
When Fingolfin dies, he acts as the hero, not the king. He tries to borrow his son’s talent for incredibly inadvisable stunts, but it isn’t in his nature. He believes the Noldor are doomed, and thus dies in despair fighting Morgoth because he does not see another path forward, only defeat.
When Fingon dies, he acts as the king, not the hero. He tries to borrow his father’s talent for forging political unity, but it isn’t in his nature. The Nirnaeth’s forces are disunited from their conception to their defeat, and Fingon dies full of hope fighting Morgoth because he does not see any other path forward, only victory.
Fingolfin’s legacy was despair, though he left a lasting blow against Morgoth. Fingon’s legacy was hope, though he did not so much as touch Morgoth.

I really enjoyed making his design and playing around with Silvan fashion and him as a character. It also gave me an excuse to reread The Hobbit to try and get so much of him into it.
