I’ll admit I’ve been having a rough couple of weeks here and I haven’t produced much, but what I have done is put together a style sheet and some aesthetic reference folders for most of the tribes of Quendi, so I thought I’d share. 🙂
*Caveat: This is mostly intended for my own use in art and writing, so I can keep my headcanons straight. When I reference a real-world culture or phenomenon, it is not because I intend to lift anything wholesale, nor am I trying to paint existing peoples as fantasy creatures. Rather, I am attempting to find situational cognates; examples of lifestyles and aesthetics make sense to me when translated into Tolkien’s world.
As always, I am probably taking some liberties with canon. That is how I roll.
