LOTR’s concept artists designed the films as a “journey back in time”

So (according to the concept art book) as the Fellowship travels deeper into Middle Earth, the places they pass through become inspired by progressively older periods of history. The farther along you are in the story, the more ancient the design influences

We begin in The Shire: which feels so familiar because, with its tea-kettles and cozy fireplaces, it’s inspired by the relatively recent era of rural England in the 1800s

But when we leave Hobbiton, we also leave that familiar 1800s-England aesthetic behind and start going farther back in time. 

Bree is based on late 1600s English architecture

Rohan is even farther back, based on old  anglo-saxon era architecture (400s-700s? ce)

Gondor is way back, and no longer the familiar English or Anglo-Saxon: its design comes from classical Greek and Roman architecture

And far far FAR back is Mordor. It’s a land of tents and huts: prehistoric, primitive, primeval. Cavemen times

And the heart of Mordor is a barren lifeless hellscape of volcanic rock…like a relic from the ages when the world was still being formed,  and life didn’t yet exist

And then they finally reach Mount Doom, which one artist described as 

“where the ring was made, which represents, in a sense, the moment of creation itself”

Modern AU Bagginshield

Figured I might actually put up the rough story idea for this one:

Bilbo and Thorin got together at a local bar. Bilbo was in grad school and Thorin just a struggling musician who’s family fell from fame after his father’s wasted all the money on drugs and booze. Over the course of their relationship, Thorin puts together a band with his closest family members and soon they begin to skyrocket to stardom. But as the fame comes rolling in for Thorin, so does the pressure to party, and the booze and drugs follow. One night, before a big show, Thorin is drunk and drugged up, falling into a heavy argument with Bilbo. It leads to Thorin physically assaulting Bilbo, and Bilbo leaves, leaving the Durin to wallow in his drunken misery.

Fastforward five years later, Thorin is sober thanks to his family stepping in. He’s still a famous musician, but that fame means nothing when his heart is hollow. Bilbo is now a college professor teaching writing and poetry, but is struggling to get over an abusive relationship. A chance meeting at the same local bar brings the two back together, and Thorin is determined to make up for his past mistakes to his hobbit, no matter the obstacles.

Might consider writing this, might not— depends if I have the time. We’ll see. ;)

Did you ever wonder what exactly our ever-fashionable, proper hobbit would wear around Erebor if we got the ending we deserved? #everyonelivesnoonedies   Well, I did and I spent some long hours burning the midnight oil (and my ipad’s battery) on trying to figure it out. The outfits are inspired by the original artbook for the first Hobbit movie and a stash of books on medieval clothing that I happen to have. As one does.  My main purpose was to move around the scale of how hobbitish-dwarvish the outfits would be, going as far as growing out his feet hair enough to braid it and adding little sidebeards and crazy hairstyles. And also finding ideas for different, more or less formal occasions. Make of them what you please though! My personal favourites are 4, 5 and 9 cause I’m a sucker for dat royal consort AU but I tried to match all sorts of concepts. Do you have any favs? Sorry for not adding numbers, it would bug me forever to have them there ^^” Oh and if anyone would feel like colouring* any of them, DO TAG ME :D I would absolutely love to see your ideas. I had tons of fun doing it and I hope you guys will have some while scrolling through them :)  ____ *(you can colour any lineart in photoshop or procreate by setting the layer of lineart on top and switching it to “multiply” mode. The white becomes see through and you can put colour on layers below ^^ )
