Lúthien Tinúviel & Huan, the Hound of Valinor sketches I wanted to draw something to celebrate the start of 2018 and since its the year of the dog I decided to sketch Lúthien and Huan. I missed drawing these two! I miss drawing Silmarillion art in general haha. I hope to do a digital illustration of this (perhaps even with Beren) before the Lunar New Year!
I did a short process video on instagram when I was sketching✨

The Fall of Gondolin is weird, because all these big fantasy novels and stories and animes have the Big Epic Fight climax where all the heroes fight so hard and barely pull through and it’s so badass and the audience loves it. Then we have Gondolin….and it’s….not. You read and they’re doing badass things and shouting about hopes and valor and dreams and youre like!! fuck yeah!! and they kill SO many balrogs and orcs and its going EXACTLY like one of those big climax battles. Then….it doesn’t. It just, goes downhill. Your favorite characters start dying, losing their little feats of valor. It gets less badass and more unsettling horror. The descriptions shift from awesome swords to wow, there’s a body in the street, wow this dude is dying next to his friend. Hey, someone’s daughter is out there sobbing and screaming and she watches her dad die. Another one of your favs dies. The room full of civilians gets attacked. You’ve lost the fuck-yeah mood and now you’re sitting there with a concerned expression because this is not the emotion you intended and it’s not sexy, badass action flick it’s just a cold nameless corpse in the streets and families committing mass suicide to avoid being taken into slavery, someone’s cousin trying to murder her family and rape her, there’s dragons in the street but they’re not cool and fuck-yeah, they’re burning people to death as they cower against walls they can’t escape from, and the battle is lost, and everyone dies, except for a tiny handful of people who run out a tunnel, way less than there should of been, and you’re like. Oh. That wasn’t the “cool fantasy battle” I was thinking it would be. That was a lot. I need to sit down. I just got destroyed by thirty pages of prose.

Something you have to understand about Melkor is that he's very bad at remembering the meaning of the word "no".

I guess it’s turned out that the enemy of our enemy is also now our enemy.

So I made a little size chart of Dragons of Middle-Earth
I think these are right but if anyone has quotes or anything to indicate something different, send them my way and I’ll fix it.
