Silmarillion Sigil Set 23

[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:

Fëanorian (Celebrimbor), Formenos

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.

The banner for the Fëanorians is reddish-orange stripes on a gray field with a yellow insert (I’ll post all the matching banners once I finish the sigils), so I decided there needed to be a simplified version of Fëanorian troops without the yellow insert, a general war banner if you will, with only the Star of Fëanor. Which, if you can tell- the star on Fëanor’s sigil is completely different from the star on the Doors of Moria, and I ended up using the star pattern as symbolic of the Noldor in Exile as a group. But Celebrimbor also needed a sigil, because he though he repudiated his father and uncles he still periodically claimed his place as a scion of House Fëanor. So this is also his sigil. Ignore that it's a feminine design. Or not. I don't care about him, so pick your headcanon.

Lot of stars, but red-orange background.

I borrowed Dawn Felagund’s ideas from Another Man’s Cage about some of the wives of the seven sons, namely that there was one or two Noldor lords living in the area that would become Formenos (royal hunting park, perhaps?), at least one of them a heavily Fëanorian partisan. Thus the sigil I nicknamed Formenos, for the family of Curufin or Caranthir’s wife.

Sort of says here’s a fiery elf with little issues with arson and larceny, necessary requirements for that bunch.

Either one, if you pressed gun to my head and demanded a sigil for Miríel TherindëSerindë I guess could work. She’s near the bottom of the list of female elves I like, but as these are both circular design feel free to assign such.
