It's that time of year again!
I read the books for the first time before the movies and I ended up just picturing Faramir with super long hair because of this quote. Like waist length. Denethor would probably not approve.

It’s been a while since I’ve drawn a character from Middle-earth, and it took me a while to finish this one, but finally I tackled something I wanted to draw for quite some time: my favourite character, Fingolfin before his fateful decision to challenge Morgoth to a duel - which is my favourite scene from the Silmarillion with one of my favourite quotes.
“Thus he came alone to Angband’s gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth to single combat. And Morgoth came.”
That “And Morgoth came” is so simple yet so powerful because it just emanates the doom that follows.
I originally wanted to draw that scene but then I found a reference image of a kneeling knight so it turned out the silent moment of contemplation before the doom: “Then Fingolfin beheld (as it seemed to him) the utter ruin of the Noldor, and the defeat beyond redress of all their houses…”

«A king is he that can hold his own
or else his title is vain» - Maedhros, Silmarillion.
I know it's Maedhros and Maglor week on Tumblr @maedhrosmaglorweek but I don't have anything new to post. What I do have is this Maedhros I never posted as an image before. And I thought it's the best time to post it.
