Silmarillion Sigil Set 32

[heget]

Disclaimer: Here is a blend of Original Tolkien creations (aka my best efforts at recreating the author’s drawing), modifications on the original, and designs completely from cloth. Previous Entries can be found under the sigil tag. Please credit if use.

In order:

Dior, Elwing

Notes:

Yes, I'm reposting these once more. Because if people in the Silmarillion/Tolkien fandom continue to use them, I want nice official links to them. And so another crosspost from tumblr project is born.

What, you thought these were done?

I’d debated on whether Dior Elúchil, as Thingol’s Heir and thus someone who must come in and desperately try to fill his role (We get virtually no information on Dior and Nimloth, which I thought completely unfair because they were the two I had the most questions about and were most interested in). But in the end I made him his own sigil because he deserves some attention. It’s basically a deconstruction of Elu’s, with a touch of Beren’s sigil.

Elwing would always get her own sigil in my plans, and for her device I used the second of Lúthien’s designs as heavy inspiration. Aside from some touches of sea blue-green, her main color comes from the secondary aqua accent and some of the dark green from Nimloth. She was Star-spray, and while I could have gone the route of heavy emphasis on the sea and gulls, she was born a princess of Doriath in Tol Galen.

So, just in time for Father’s Day, two sigils for two characters that are very precious to me.
